Well, we have some GREAT NEWS for everyone! The BLM finally acted in a responsible manner and closed the two valves in Bly Tunnel, ending over 25 years of Eagle Lake water loss through a pipe. This has been a long and frustrating battle, since June of 2008, but hopefully, over time, it will improve the lake level and our fishing experience.
We look forward to this years fishing season, and will keep you posted on the precipitation up here at the Lake, and let you know when Pine Creek begins running, and how the lake level rises. As of 12/15/2011 it was right on the metal marker for 5096 at the Spalding launch ramp. As of this afternoon, it has risen approximately 1 and 1/2 inches to 2 inches. Come on Rain and Snow.
Check back with us to see how Pine Creek performs this year and what we can hope to expect in water levels on Eagle Lake.
