I agree with 9094, come out to west Texas and see what we have to contend with. No ramps and shallow water and no I would not live in east Texas,been there and done that. Were just one day away from a flood and then we will have a lot of salt cedars to fish.

I live in garland with most of my family living in mesquite. We residents aren't allowed to water out yards, wash our cars, or anything else during certain hours of the day. However, the rich folk, restaurants, and city buildings get to water there yard when ever they want.
I hate it for all of us that are on the water. Those people don't understand what is happening to our lakes and they don't care. Lavon is 6-7 foot low and if its a bad summer then I see it dropping lower than it did 2 years ago (13.75') and that won't be good.
Pray for rain!! I work in the irrigation industry and I can promise you that the "rich folk" and commercial properties don't get a pass. They may water when they want and pay the fines, but they don't get a pass. If they refuse after fines they have their meter shut off. Your comments are riddled with emotion and little understanding of the condition we are in.

It's not just Lake Fork, I would say over 85% of the lakes in Texas are low and have been for years. All the lakes around Waco are at least 7 ft. down.

June 12 the level was 398.51 (-4.49 feet ) at the dam. Today at 11:00 398.07 (-4.93 feet ) at the dam. Per SRA web site. Looks like a long dry summer instore.
Thanks JC Outdoors for the SRA update...

Evaporation.
These 100 degree days take a toll. Has nothing to do with peoples lawns, City of Dallas or the Illuminati.

It may be evaporation on Fork but on Hubbard they let it out the dam as fast as it comes in.

And we are bless that's all we are down right now,there's a lot worst case's of low water level on other lakes.Since I have been fishing Fork since the water that is 30 ft deep now was only 5 to 6 ft back in the day,from LFM to the 515 bridge I feel a little better about it.  Be Safe!!!
