Joe Pool video

Joe Pool video - 10/16/18 07:50 PM

I'd have to swim to just get to my boat as I keep it at Lynn Creek. Fish with my buddies boat on other lakes. Sunday late I fished and parked in 18" of water but could still walk to the front of the marina. Lake has risen another 2 feet since then. It's nuts and they can't take any of the water out as Mountain Creek is overflowing as well.

Agree. That marina gets destroyed every time it floods and boats start breaking loose

I watched the video but was disappointed that she didn't use the weather reporters lean to look like she could barely stand out there.

I'm guessing that they have either shut it down or about to be shutting down the lake again?

I live down the street. The entire parking lot is flooded now and its creeping toward the dry storage. The little road that leads to the dry storage was almost completely under when I drove by at 5PM. They have a barricade up near the entrance.

There are a lot of places in Texas that are flooded out. Several rivers are above flood stage and several lakes water is fixing to go over the spill ways. Forecast is saying more rain is on the way! nuts

I have waypoints for the picnic tables and BBQ pits at Lloyd. I wonder how long it’s gonna take for the 21”ers to move in.

When it hit dry storage last time was about the time that they closed the lake. This is what, the third time the Marina has been under water? His insurance must be thru the roof by now. Kind of sucks as he has put money into improving it each time only to have it to trash the place again.

Only way I can get the boat is to have a friend launch and take me over there. Whatever is going to happen has probably already happened. But I think I'll drive by tonight and see what it's looking like. They have closed the marina and turned off the power. Only reason I keep the boat there is because my work is crazy and most of my fishing is in 2-3 hour increments. So saving time picking up the boat and launching is big for me. I also got my lift free. Just took over payments on the slip but got the lift and locker free.

I believe they kept their security guy around there last time and I think that they had a jon boat to help customers get out to their boat to check on them. Worth driving bye and checking on.

Just got an email and they will shuttle you out to the boat 9-6pm so at least I can grab my tackle box and rods.
