    Re: cumberland elevation ?

    The Corp was supposed to make an announcement on lake levels in Feb., but never said a word. I don't take that as good news. I would be surprised if they allow the lake to be raised this year, I suspect it will remain at 680'. But, that's not all bad, there aren't nearly as many driftwood problems, there are 20,000 acres I don't have to look for fish in, and the river is low enough to wade most of the year. 38,000 acres is still a pretty huge lake!

    Re: cumberland elevation ? 695!!

    Lake is at 695 feet(run for high ground) right now!! I've moved to my other hobbies and fishing holes as we we wait for the lake to retreat. Might not even happen in May??
