They are all full and going into their spillways. Cottonwoods spillway got backed up by debris and the water was so high Monday that you couldnt even make the full circle on the road by the ramp lol. Some folks, I imagine they were park rangers, were working to unclog it but with more rain it will just get clogged again. oh and cope102, Clear Lake is in unit 41 of the grasslands. Take 287 north and turn off at CR 2395. Go left at the intersection with the hopewell church sign. You will see a wooden bulletin stand and a green gate, turn there and it will take you to the lake. Be warned for those who travel, roads have been beaten to heck with the rain. Cattle guard going into clear lake has a HUGE pothole once you clear it, def a tire hazard or for any low vehicles. Many more potholes and ruts as well along the road. Oh and as for Black creek, you familiar with that little peninsula on the back side (west end)? yea...it does not exist anymore. The little turn around loop at the end of the road on the backside was in water. That whole area was a marsh as of yesterday.

Again I would just like to point out that the gravel roads out there are the worst I have ever seen them in my almost 16 years of fishing these lakes and ponds. Please use caution everyone, as potholes and ravines are everywhere and some roads leading to lake access are now IN the lake so dont go peeling down those roads too fast or you may meet waters edge faster than you thought, especially at the back (west) side of black creek. I recommend 4wd or at least a vehicle of good clearance and some good tires with no wear-and-tear if your going down any gravel roads out here at the moment. Please use caution and stay safe guys but also enjoy the new lake levels! Its gonna be like fishing totally new lakes once we can get out on the water again. I cant wait
