Meadow and Lake Gonzales. are these also getting lowered, never read about those, all built in the same time frame? I just googled Lake Gonzales, looks like a decent sized lake.

They will get lowered. When this takes place it will be straight river channel fishing from now on! This will have a negative effect on the fishing and will change the patterns. Only time will tell how future fishing will be. Side Note: Have some friends who fished Lake Wood a lot. They also fished the area from Lake Wood to Meadow Lake. After the dam broke on Lake Wood several years ago the fishing went down hill and has not made a come back since.

GBRA has been trying to "bankrupt" these dams for years because whether or not there is a dam, they still get to sell water and waste water. The dams are just 1 (or technically 6) bad line items on their balance sheet. If they can get rid of the cost of the dams completely, they could get rid of any small amounts they spend on the dams and add that to their profit.
