    Here's a pic from Stripernut of Jamestown. He has a very somber report of the lake condition. I'll let him fill everyone in..

    there is speculation based on this weekends forecast that the levels could reach 760....seven hundred and sixty feet....
    its mere speculation right now, and considering the devastatning effect that level would have on facilities on and around the lake i hope it stays speculation and the math turns out to be wrong.

    this situation has reached a very serious condition at this point.

    In the 24 hour period of 2/20-2/21 it rose 2.69 ft and was 746.20 and still rising...the weather forecast for this weekend calls for 2.5" of rain in a 48 hour period. I have plans of going to Cumberland either Monday or Tuesday of next week but I might rethink that decision when it gets closer...by next week if I pull my boat out of the garage animals will start lining up 2X2

    well if you just had to find a silver lining in all this it would be the fact that there will be no shortage of cover to flip and pitch in lol

    This is a pretty recent pic of Grider Hill. I have seen bait and fish move into the parking lot above the arrow. Pulled my boat up to a picnic table and threw red fins off it at them. I blanked. LOL

    I’m showing that area to be about 800 feet on a topo map. Seems like it would be lower than that but I guess it’s all relative to being Lake Cumberland

    Less than a foot to go before lake hits all time record.
    I think it still raining down in that area.
