Hi, I'm new to these boards. I called the lake headquarters and found that there was damage from the recent storms and the spillway is closed until they can repair it. They are going to attempt tomorrow, but can not if it is raining.

Thanks for the welcome. The spillway is open again. I was there Friday night/Saturday morning. Not a soul but myself and the snakes.

Sorry, I didnt mean the dam was releasing water I meant the fishing area was open. Nothing was biting. I havent had much luck at that spot, some small channel cat and perch.

I think with the zebra mollusks, barring the danger of breaching flood pool, they will probably not release water at Lavon. =(

still not enough power... means no fishies.. wait til they open 12 gates... we will get some hybrid action immediately... the hybrid are still in there... they also released over 500,000 striper like 3-4 years ago... they have grown alot on the main lake... caught acouple this year during the run... none were keepers.. but they are getting around 12 inches... cant wait til they reach legal size!!!!
