    Re: Will it ever stop raining?

    I'd like to get my jon boat out once before summer hits. Wouldn't mind enjoying the lower temps.

    Re: Will it ever stop raining?

    Went to Bluegrass Pit on Wed and found the water up very high but people were still able to launch their boats at the South Concrete Launch ramp. Water is still rising and we had more rain last night so the parking lot may be under water by now. I may drive out there on I-164 and check on the flooding. I'll try to take some more pictures and perhaps process and pos them in here later on. It takes time to process them and reduce their size and put them on photobucket before I can link them to a post in here. So it may be a little while before I get them done.

    I saw Paul fishing Bluegrass and he was catching the bass left and right. He caught one nice 1 to 2 lb LM bass right next to the launch ramp. Fish were congregated near the culvert entrance where the water goes under Boonville New Harmony Road from Bluegrass Pit to Loon Pit's North end.

    Moving water attracts the fish as lots of food is being swept into this area.

    Otter pit and Loon pit's launch ramps were both underwater Wed April 28th.

    I wonder if the flooding is as bad up North in IN? No one is really talking about the flooding in other areas of the state except for Patoka Lake which I read was 8.4 ft above summer pool and rising still.
