I'm hearing rumors about the SRA dropping Fork 11 feet to fix a couple of bridge turns. Anyone else heard this?

No I haven't heard nothing, but sometimes they gotta do what they gotta do.

Take a chain saw and make some new boat lanes.

definitely agree on the chain saw action.... if it's true... how many ramps will be usable at that level?


Require a whole lot of luck...

I see that they are planning on drawing down Toledo Bend for spillway repairs but havent heard anything about Lake Fork.

Buddy told me he heard the same back in Feb. He heard one of the bridges is being under cut, or something along those lines, and needs repair. He heard later this summer possibly. However, I cannot find a formal release that confirms these plans.

Heard some rumors about taking Rayburn down some to check the bridges as well. So far just rumors though

They would make a ramp. Would kill a lot of the economy there

Probably wont drop it but about 3-5 ft. I think they can fix what they need to with that draw down. IMO

Don't think they'd go down 11'. That would take out most ramps around the lake. Like Mark said above, I can see them dropping it 4 to 5' to do repairs.
