The lake is the lowest it's been in over 5 years, 7 + feet, so be extra careful when launching and running. A good mapping chip is vital in low water periods like we have now.

I drove around today checking out the lake and ramps. I saw stumps and channels I didn't know about. Its really really low.

I just came from the lake and it's not as low as I have seen it in the past but I have been around awhile. I actually put the stakes in the ground by the cemetery at Soddy creek where the pulp wood yard use to be one winter back in the 1990s and it was this low or lower then. Be careful out there if you go and stay in the channels when you run the big motor

Yea, as the other guys mentioned it is really low and was muddy the last time I was out last weekend. Stay safe.

I think they start raising it in April but they have changed their schedule now so I'm not 100% sure . It used to be full by mid April but I think it is may before it's at full pool now
