i wouldn't think they would go that low.. i would contact the SRA

Here you go guys.

Current as of today.

Both generators down

Spillway gates closed

Current lake level: 167.32

SRA said they will turn on both generators Friday and run them until the water level reaches 165.

Ramps Lowest Usable Level

Indian Mounds 162.6

6 Mile 163.61

Alpine 162.69

Fin & Feather 163.61.

Give me your ramp and I will post the lowest usable level for you.

Jack,,,and Catt, i thought they fixed 6-mile ramp for lower water? maybe they just fixed up what was there, i know it was a menace when the lake was down a couple years ago

paradise point 162.69

I know of someone that had to get the back tandem off the ramp at Fin&Feather two weeks ago.

Their website material is stating that the ramp is now for overhight patrons only. Not sure when that has started. They never said anything to me, but it's been a while since i launched there. Can anyone verify this?

The following lists were compiled by SRA-Texas and SRA-Louisiana in 2006

The old Fin-N-Feather launch one could launch at any depth but the new owners thought better of it.

The lowest I've even seen the lake was 14' or 158 & we launched at Six Mile

Boaters: Warning Information

Thanks Catt.

The information appears confusioning because the info was obtained from anglers

Just to clarify a little farther when we launched the first two times at 6-Mile with water levels of 14' or 158 it was with a 15' aluminum flat jon rigged out and 25 hp Suzuki. The next three times was in my 15' 5" Stratos with a 70 Johnson, either could be loaded and unloaded by hand.

Wha'da ya mean Catt when you say by hand?

I don't have to float the boat off/on the trailer, they are both light enough to push off by hand and then crank them up by hand.

Know the limitations of your tow vehicle & good luck.

Oh Yea!!!

Get your cameras out & take lots of pictures!!

Here is one from the last drawn down, can anyone identify the whitish looking soil located almost center in this photo?

Snow. LOL.

Snow. LOL.

Did have snow that winter but no it aint snow but you caught a 6 or 7 #er there

That's where i caught the good fish when we were to together?

Heck i'm coming to take pics.

It's sand.

mcgees flats or somewhere around white oak ;D

NOT!

If y'all look real close it's a sandy ridge in a sandy red clay area, more wood than grass grows on it.

Jack you should have that marked in your GPS, notice the two cypress trees, remember the wacky worm tossed up near the one on the left if I remember right.

Y'all had better start studying the next two contour lines out from the "150" line and try to figure where the bass will relocate as the water level drops.

I already have

I have it. I punched it in right after I released the fish

Night y'all 

Low water, late fall, y'all recognize the marina?

Catt, would you explain the differences between daily migrations and seasonal migrations? when we were looking at housen community flats, you told us the 150 line was the migration route,,,do the bass just simply follow their daily routes...when the season changes, they just stay shallow? i know we have to look for the bass when we start our day,,,but we should be able to eliminate a portion of water with educated guess,,,shouldn't we?

fin & feather

Catt, the reason i'm asking,,i'm trying to tie this migration with map study ( i already have trouble deciphering what i'm looking for on a map now) especially if the lake is going to be lower..and were coming into the fall with bait and bass moving into and out of the creeks...

Paul the #1 thing most anglers fail to understand especially with a lake the size of Toledo and I quite sure I covered this some where in this thread is this. There are 2 distinct types, kinds, groups or call them what you wish of bass. There are those bass which are always found within a certain distance from the shore and there are those bass which will never in their entire life time see an actual shore.

I refer to them a "shore line" bass and "main lake" bass

There are bass out on the eastern parts of Housen' Community flats that never move into coves "ever", this bass even spawn out on the flat. There are bass found on 25-45' structure beyond the Housen' Community flats.

Those bass located within a certain distance from the coves will make the seasonal migrations into various coves but the others will not. For the main lake bass the seasonal migrations and feeding migrations are largely to the same areas.

The main lake bass are less affected by frontal conditions or boating pressure which makes them more predictable.
