Lake Conditions

February 4, 2010 -- So, Mr. Phil the groundhog saw his shadow and we have six more weeks of this weather...GOOD! We can use the rain. Current lake level is 43.8 feet below spillway, which is a 5 foot rise from our low point last October. Please pray for rain specific to the town of Medina all the way down to Bandera and into the lake. This is the same type of El Nino pattern that hit back in spring of 2007 when we were 38.5 feet low and the rains continued weekly putting the lake back to full before Memorial Day that year. We are praying for the same type of situation now.

For you fishermen out there, we've had a few dock fisherman the last couple of weeks. The catch is still slow, but there were some crappie, perch, a striper, and a couple of blacks caught. We look forward to seeing you die-hards this weekend, and for those less hearty, wait til the weather clears up a bit and we'll save you a place on the dock.

Looking forward to a full-lake year this season, and seeing so many of our friends that we missed last year. Bless you, and Happy Valentine's Day next week with your loved ones.
