Bonham has a much larger water shed you are correct. Bois d arc goes all the way to whitewright area on google earth. But it’s still not a real large water shed comparatively to say lavon. Which also reaches up to near whitewright.
No area lakes came up much with last weeks rain. I’ve been watching them for duck season. Now that all the ponds creeks and soil are good and healthy any rain we get soon will have a more direct effect on the lakes. Bonham does? gotcha and its up creek from bois darc. i was happy with Lavon catching 2ft, it was hurting

we only got a little over 5" so bois d'arc wouldn't come up much as dry as our ground has been up here.
they have to open bonham before bois d'arc is going to come up much this yr. summer sucked it way down.
bonham should be full, if we get a couple of good toad floaters they should open it some to keep the level consistent.

Bonham is still a foot low. The area just hasn't had much rain since late spring. It came up nearly 15 foot this year but lost 3 feet over the summer. I think you looked at the wrong chart. Maybe acre-feet? 11-1-22 elevation was 515.50' 7-18-23elevation was 529.90' Which chart am I looking at wrong?

Is Bois d’Arc gonna be a O.H. Ivie type deal? Ivie has filled once I think back in the 90’s and it has been less than 50% most of the time

And it's in an area that normally receives a lot of rain. this ^ ^ ^ ^ we typically get about 35-50% more rain than the dfw area. 2015 the lake would have been full before christmas and probably overflowing, we got a couple of storms that dropped over 18" in 12 hr. period. bois d'arc was probably 45' deep and the fm 79 crossing, normal is about 10' (it was at least 25' over the bridge then. if the el nino winter prediction is right we will see more rain than normal, how much and when is the question.

Those numbers are for Bois d'Arc when the gates weren't even closed in in 2022 I believe. I know those numbers are not for Bonham.
