Ft. Phantom Hill Lake and Lake Stamford are catching water today - 07/16/13 03:48 PM

This is a big deal in West Texas, we finally have some water running into a few lakes today:

1). Lake Ft. Phantom Hill

http://waterdata.usgs.gov/tx/nwis/uv/?site_no=08083500&PARAmeter_cd=00062,72020,00054

At 9:30 a.m. this did not include any water that might possibly be scalped from the Brazos River into the lake. Seebee Park has water running in strongly and is bank to bank. Ft. Phantom

2). Lake Stamford

Good Fishing,

I sure am glad to see it, I hit rocks twice just trying to get from the ramp to the dock the last time I was at Phantom.

Yessir. We also got stuck on the flats over near the silos. Had to climb out of the boat and drag it about 100 yds to find dep enough water to run in.

Water scalping operations have began on Ft. Phantom. The City of Abilene is pumping water from the Brazos River under West Lake Road or FM600 into the lake so the lake will gain additional water other than what is coming in thru the creeks. 80 percent chance of more rain they are predicting, but should cease sometime tomorrow p.m.

We certainly have been blessed and for it to happen in JULY of all things. The man has heard the prayers.

Good Fishing,
