I myself would love to see it NEVER be above 700 again. 723 is normal summer pool and I can't even imagine what a mess that lake will be when it returns to that level. Several groups have approached the Corp about going to 700 for summer and 690 for winter, and they said no way forget about it's not up for debate.
Personally if the lake ever settles down after they take it up that far the fishing will be fantastic for the first few years. Ya know the honeymoon period, kinda like when they fill a new lake and the fishing is great for awhile. I remember when they filled Taylorsville, man that first few years we killed bass up there and some good fish to. Now I wouldn't give you two spits for that overfished mudhole.
Anyway I digress, the lake will have good fishing for awhile and yes Creek is right a most of that vegetation will be dead in no time. The bigger trees and bushes will take awhile. But man it's gonna be dangerous, there will be floaters the size of your house by the Gazillions.
