**Golden Algae has killed several lakes from this list. Golden Algae studies are being conducted on several of the lowest level lakes. The City Lake south of Albany Lake Mc???? has one of the highest levels of golden algae counts recorded in Texas.

Ramp situations are critical at most of the lakes with low levels with the only launch from the shoreline.

That's some tough stats. I sympathize with you, and wish you west Texans lots of precipitation in whatever way does the most good.

Lake McCarty is the one your talking about. It's a sad thing, the two fish pic in my sig is from that little lake. It was a few miles of dirt road and cattle guards just to get to the lake, but the average bass size was 5 lbs the last time Abilene's fisheries division surveyed it

When they finally get around to building the keystone pipeline, they should add an extra pipe and send water down from Canada!!
