White River Lakes Pool Conditions
Remember what it looks like to see conservation pools in all of the White River lakes?
You probably don’t unless you made a note of conditions back in early October.
As wade fishing possibilities resume, anglers should exercise caution as always and not assume. Practice safe wading. Don’t wade where you shouldn’t be if water was to rise. Always have an escape route. Get out at the first sign of rising water or if in doubt.
Also, please remember the Corps is upgrading their realtime graphs and charts, and some of the information reflects “No Data” or incomplete data rather than low water. The Corps forecasts the data will be up-to-date by mid-March. As always when checking for low water, do not rely on one source of published data. Onstream conditions rule. Be aware of your surroundings.
Take advantage of the low water opportunities now. I suspect they will be short lived again this spring.
