The lake level is 570.93 and has been stable for about 4-hours.  The new news is they have supplemented the one generator with two spillway gates opened one foot which is equivalent to a little over 1/2 of a generator. A lot of fish were caught yesterday by Binks, Tom Kelly, Mike Eakle and other Blackburns guests. We have several fishermen in and I did not get a chance to talk to all of them. I set out a few limb lines last night and we will see if any catfish are biting. I cannot see under the dock well enough to tell if the bluegill are there but I am baiting with them from Nabatak. They are just the right size. Mike caught some mushrooms yesterday and these two usually go together. Spring is here and so is the cloudy rainy weather. About two low pressures and one cold front comes through a week with just a few days of sunshine. It is to cool down for a couple of days and then warm back to 80. The full moon is the 7th and catfish do not bite well in the full moon and even less if the lake is dropping. That has not been a problem so far. We will see. As soon as the water starts to warm a cold front comes through and stops it. Bink is catching fish both day and night and good ones too. Come on down to Blackburns.  We will not charge you too much and your first boat stall is free. The Landry boys and Joseph Cuneo from Houma, Louisiana are catching some very nice bass. They are good fishermen and nice people. We will have to dodge showers for a while but should not wash us out. You can fish close to Blackburns dock and duck into the dock when they start. This is the way to social distance. Better than sitting on the sofa.
