68-72 degrees. The lake is up. Water is pouring over the overflow for the last few days. Water clarity is a 2-2 and half foot or more near the dam. Pretty stained every where else

Nutman,
Do you happen to know the status of the Athens Fish & Game Lake dam/road?
Last time I was out there, it was still blocked off.

Brad the road is still closed.I think its job security for the crew as long as it is taking to repair.

I believe there's a tourney there this Saturday also. I haven't been there in a month or so but did really well on square bills and spinner baits.

Is the 'grill' the same as the restaurant? And do they still have RV area open or is it closed?
