Seminole Co. Ramblings

[Son]

Haven't monitored the hydrilla lake lately. Lake Seminole. If you go fishing, you will mow your way to open water with your outboard. Hopefully cold weather will take a toll on that mess, The Corp wont do anything. Also hope the lake stays at a low level so the cold can kill some of those aquatic weeds. Bad part, dead weeds sink to bottom and rots. Not good for water quality, but that's how it goes.

 

[Son]

Lake Seminole is at a low level again. Come on freeze and kill this grass.

 

[Son]

Lake Seminole continues to be low. Ran the pontoon boat a bit today to keep the battery up, and mowed lots of aquatic weeds in front of the dock. Running the big motor at the dock while tied up blows lots of sediment out, maintaining some depth at the dock. Don't do that, and over the years, the boat would be sitting on mud.

 

[Son]

Overcast with hopes of rain, but it isn't looking good. I'll water things just to be safe. Lake Seminole remains low.

 

[Son]

Down to the dock today, lake Seminole remains low and the water looks murky. Not as clear as it usually is, probably because he water isn't moving much with it being so dry lately. Plus the air has been full of dust from farm harvesting. That dust settles on the waters surface at night with the dew. Eventually mixes in during the day if a breeze kicks up.

Clear and low up the creek. Only saw a few air boats this weekend. Guess everyone is hunting in the woods.

 

[Son]

Seminole remains low, storm didn't do anything to recharge our swamps or ponds either. Cold is having an effect on the hydrilla, some is sinking. Need the water lower and a hard freeze to knock it down enough to help next summer.

 

[Son]

Low water continues in Lake Seminole. Hope it gets lower in time for the first freeze. Nothing short of several herds of hippos will do much to that hydrilla. A freeze with low water conditions will beat chemicals anytime. Specks are biting. For you northerners, that's crappie.

 

[Son]

The lake area had a good rain yesterday morning. And then it turned cold, 38 this morning in spots.

I've seen a lot of boats in Bainbridge lately heading fishing, I assume they're spec fishing.

 

[twtabb]

All right we got some frezzing temps an fairly low water levels. Let see what this does to the hydrilla.

 

[Son]

I'm hoping the freeze knocks all the vegetation down. It sure got my plants and fruit trees. Didn't hurt my greens here at the lake, but burned my greens garden at the hunt camp in Miller Co. The Corp is suppose to on the lake repairing channel markers, replacing buoys and removing trees from channels. I haven't seen them out doing anything yet. Believe they were suppose to begin Dec 8th. Bet they were not out during the freeze.

 

[Son]

I have my boats out of the water for a clean up, and to install a new fish finder on the toon. First sign of spring, the pontoon will be first to go back in and be parked at the dock.

 

[Son]

Now it's time to think about fishing. Lets hope the freeze hammered the hydrilla and other aquatic weeds. I'll be fishing on Seminole weather permitting. I don't like to be on the water when it's cold, so it will be on nice blue bird days.

 

[Son]

Lake Seminole is up a bit today, Highest it's been in awhile. But still not at normal pool.

 

[Son]

Pontoon boat capsized in Lewis Pond while trying to replace buoys and channel post. Equipment used to drive post put too much weight on one side, wind blew the boat over. All rescued, no injuries. Corp contracting out channel clearing and buoy or pole replacement.

 

[Son]

Noticed Lake Seminole in SW Georgia is up a bit more today, protecting those exotic weeds before the next cold snap shows up.

 

[Son]

Hard rain most of the day here at lake Seminole. Crimping my style, can't anything done outside, nor can a fellow fish in this weather.

 

[Son]

Another rainy day, morning was the roughest. Haven't had a chance to check the lake. Another fishing day lost.

Road up to my lease this weekend and there’s plenty of water in the woods and the flint river was high.
