I posted this eariler in the catfish section but I know a lot in this area fish PK so I thought I may get more feedback here.

Iv been watching our lakes rise online, mostly the ones in central Texas and on the Brazos river basin. Almost all of them, with the exception of Belton and Stillhouse are above conservation pool. Both of these 2 lakes will soon be above conservation pool at the rates they are currently rising. Last week Whitney, Aquilla, Waco, and Proctor were all above conservation pool and releasing water. Now with the recent rains and flooding downstream they have had to pretty much close the gates on all of them. I understand that part.

What I dont understand is the site I am watching now is showing Granbury to be .39 below conservation pool and they are releasing 6800cfs. This lake hasnt even filled up yet but they are already releasing a good amount of water. Im not familiar with the area around Granbury so can someone please fill me in on the reasoning behind this?

Probably the outcome from up stream water being released that will flow into Granbury.
