Going to lake Amistad today for the weekend. Hurd they are dropping the water 6 to 10 feet! Is this true?

It's dropping and it's bad, I'm hear they are gonna stop on the 27th we'll see! I hope, and I am praying.

Right at 3.5 ft since Saturday.I hope that there was some deep grass growing as that's all it will have going for the lake.

I'm curious to see the lake this weekend. It was already a different landscape last month.
The Park Service called me yesterday to let me know that the 454 Bridge is OFF LIMITS to launch from if you are fishing a tournament. Just thought I would pass that along.

I went this past weekend and launched out of and stayed at Rough Canyon. Hadn't been there since last summer and it's a different lake for sure. Here's few pics. I wish I had taken a pic of the San Pedro area from the 277 bridge but I didn't. It's nothing but dirt when heading south and looking east from the bridge. Top of the ramp at Rough Canyon... [img:center] [/img] Bottom of ramp (right side looking from top of ramp)... Dock at Rough Canyon... View from "The Point" restaurant at Rough Canyon... View of "Windmill Point" from the Devils... Pray for rain.

I know I will be fishing the BLT this Saturday there, I was there last weekend and I will say that it was a grind for me, did a lot of water eliminating and very little catching. I am hoping to just scratch a limit.
