The water will return to it's normal depth in March, and until that time the smaller lake pool has concentrated the fish population somewhat, a boon to anglers!
Entergy Corporation has just completed their annual drawdown of Lake Hamilton. Dropping the level of the lake 5 feet to facilitate shoreline maintenance and inspection, the drawdown is part of a plan to help control nuisance aquatic vegitation. This years drought resulted in warmer than normal water temps and much clearer water enabling the vegetation to grow more abundantly, causing a problem for boaters and swimmers. The drawdown is a very "green" way of handling the vegetation problem as nature does the work eliminating the grasses through dehydration and freezing during the coldest days of winter.
