Well the water is low enough now that the outlet is visible...the guy that took the pic so, he doubts a reasonable size walleye could maybe it thru the narrow slats , a whitefish maybe but definitely not a large pike..so the fish gotta be very thick in paces of the remaining lake . The scare that irrigation officials gave us August 1 about water being totally shut off is such a joke , canal at my place south of Lethbridge still has 4 ft of water flowing and it is usually dry by Oct 19 . Some one at the top has no clue about how to manage the water and keep folks informed

So back in Aug 2017 the water level was about the same. These pics were taken Aug 25 2017
All them
Nice pike and walleye now flushed down the canal…. Hopefully they might be able to make it to Jensen and survive…
Sigh…. Twas a good fishery….
Water was actually up last week from where it was 3 weeks ago. Then it was 6' below the outlet. But water must be coming from the Montana side to fill it.
Looks like water managers in the south are worried about the amount of snow we're going to get and the effect on the upcoming spring/summer.
