Creek still dropping

[olcaptain]

Due to the Lake Sinclair drawdown, Crooked Creek continues to drop. I was able to get out a bit today in one of my canoes to take a few photos. Max didn't like it, but I left him in our fenced yard. I knew if something happened the mud would be way passed his rudder. I can only go up the creek maybe 50 yards but I was able to navigate all the way into the lake the other way. If it continues to drop we will be limited for sure. I hope you enjoy the photos!

It is a Georgia Power lake and traditionally, they have dropped it every 5 years so folks can repair seawalls and docks.

I heard it was going down 9 feet so Ga. Power can do some work on old discharge at plant , but it may be just a rumor .
