Whoa! That's kind of crazy. Probably a good thing though.

I'm doing the 16 to 4 float this Saturday and Sunday. I hope this doesn't mean it goes from 170, 170, 170, . . . 170, 4,000, 35, 35 , 35 cfs.

It should be back to normal by Saturday, unless they do another release.

I think they do it to bring up Granbury(?)

I was on it once at 9000cfs, it was a blast for floating, just stay away from the sweepers and be careful when you go to beach your craft.

If you were going to do a one night float to bass fish, would you rather put in below PK or below Whitney?

PK. The nightly releases at whitney could cause problems.

Do the fish turn on after a release like this? It seems like it could make for some great fishing. Anyone have any experience with it?

I would think so. Any time there is fresh water after a long period of calm water; you'd think it would be good.
