patoka lake

I have heard it is horrible up there right now. I am sure with this weekend's rains it might get even worse. How close is the water to normal spring/summer pool now? I was up there a couple of weeks ago and was told it was at normal winter pool. It seemed at least 7' shallower than normal fishing conditions for spring. I was getting readings of 44 degrees then. Doesn't seem as though it has warmed too much.
