There was 9" about 2-3 weeks ago and people were driving out.  I assume they still are with all the weather we are having.  Not sure about the success but I'll check tomorrow with the boys and get back to you.

They have caught some fish on Beebe and Constance, but not sure as of late.
Take a kid hunting and fishing... It'll be the best thing for generations to come.

Sounds like it has been slow with the cold weather snap.

I heard the fishing out there sucks.  Apperently the DNR netted out a LOT or the fish in the lake and moved them to other lakes.
Anything that is free is worth saving up for.

 Camera on all day and didn't see any fish. had one flag.  DNR said yesterday They had netted 130,000pds of game fish this fall.GAMEFISH. then placed in other lakes. Even the DNR guy said," It's a bunch of bulls&^%" . Taking the fishing from 5000 people so 50 peolple can duck hunt WTF!!!
Well I guess the Republicans are going to have a tough time pinning this on Obama, but somehow they will.HAHAHAHAHA

Yes, they netted (from what I was told) some where between 10,000 and 15,000 pounds of fish last summer.  I believe last winter, the DNR lifted any and all limits, slots, etc. due to winter kill setting in.

The idea is to drain it down for a duck marsh, they have said that for 3 years now, yet everyone and their brother heads out there to pound away at minimal duck numbers.   :scratch:  I don't care who's fault it is, yet we have  :censored: duck numbers in this state. 

At least we can  :toast: when the fish don't bite....

This should clear up everything

Not one rumor that you guys have posted is true. And no it wasn't open to liberalized fishing last year and looking at the D.O. #'s from this year it won't happen this year, if it is open to liberalized fishing it will be posted CLEAARLY at the public landings, if its not posted hearing a rumor on the internet will not save you from the wrath of the C.O. And I also wouldn't listen to what any of the survey takers are telling you at the landing. They are basically there on a volunteer basis and really are not in the know on anything
