If they can release 500,000 cfs from the dam and an additional 500,000 cfs from the auxiliary spillway, where in world do they expect the highwater mark to be? They flooded homes running less than 50,000 cfs (if I remember correctly it was about 46,000 cfs).

You do realize the flood gates are open?

The Little Red (Greers Ferry) flows into the White River directly near Georgetown, AR. The White River can back the Little Red up. The Arkansas River and White River meet bascially at the Mississippi River. Actually, barge traffic on the Arkansas River accesses the White River as I understand it. The Mississippi, White, and Arkansas Rivers are all high. The White and Arkansas Rivers will be backed up. To answer your question (if you were asking) the White River doesn't automatticaly affect the Little Red River even though Greers Ferry is consider a part of the White River system. There is another dam on the Black River in SW Missouri, which forms Clearwater Lake, that is also considered to be a part of the White River system.

The Beaver tailwater doesn't flow into the Little Red River.

The radio station in Mountain Home has reported the Corps will open the flood gates at Bull Shoals today at noon. You might considered cancelling your trip.

Don, Some left over smoked Boston Butt works well also.

Did he poke the eyes out of the fish?

I saw Brad Wright the last time I was on Taney. It was good to see him. He is still having some health problems. He is an institution on Taney.

Those dumb asses were pretty busy trying to make a living. Hind sight it pretty good.

Don't most guides provide waders?

Do you work for Bass Pro or does your boss lease space from Bass Pro? I'll be honest when I say Bass Pro gets no sympathy from me if it the first scenario. Of course it is always the 'little' guy who suffers.

Matt Tucker is handy with a camera.

You do know those things have to have 'tricity to work don't you?

I saw probably 50 power company trucks headed west on I-40 today at Russellville. I'm sure they are headed to OK. One group was from North Carolina.
