http://www.news-journal.com/news/local/article_09da4770-4ad8-593e-96d1-16e9f1885a77.htmlYou don't see the lakes around East Texas look like this very often.... Check out the pictures from the boat ramp at the state park! Please RAIN!

Wow, those fish should be bunched up. And half poached! That water gets hot out there...take away half the lake due to low water...I bet it's near boiling!

I have seen it low but WOW it is bad. Wonder how low it can go before the Power Plant has to shut down? Would love to find a way to get a boat in there and look around.

Jody 9' low...you should be able to find some good stuff! Good idea! I might have to get the 'yak' out and make a trip!

On the upside it should be easy for them to fix where the ramp drops off on the swimming area side now!

I never thought I'd see Martin that low.

My dad used to fish that lake religously back in the late 80's and early 90's he knew that lake like the back of his hand, need to let him see those pics.

Thats absolutly unreal. I wonder how low it has to get before they can't run the power plant? That to me is the biggest fear, if that plant goes down the others in the area can't produce enough to keep up with the supply of electricity to the grid for the area. Then what?
