Correct me if I am wrong, but I think the lake is only like 2 feet low right now. Normal elevation is 706, and its 704 and some change. Truman is a flood control lake, the bank line is bare because the last couple of springs the lake has been anywhere from 7-20 ft high.

LOL, Yeah it's only 6 inches lower than it was this time last year.

Ok one Cove I was fishing in last year at this time there is no water there,one Ramp I was using last year water an't even close to it and I'm seeing dirt where I never have on the Lake.Plus was talking with a Guy at Bass Pro and he said he couldn't believe how low the Lake was durring Firearms Deer Season last year.

Something isn't adding up.

COE says 704.49' at 19:30CDT 08-20-12 that's 1 1/2 feet low I have never seen Truman lower that 2 ft down. Might this year, everybody is so use to seeing Truman above normal that's it hard to adjust to the present conditions. There is a lot of shallow water on Truman when it's normal now is the time to get out and look around and find some things that you have been missing.

Guys! I was mistaken.

Truman is currently 704.6

Wanna know what the lake level was on Aug.20 2011 (last year) ?

It was exactly the same, 704.6

November (deer season) 2011 it got down to 704.1 or thereabouts.

Ok I'll think on it

With water being so low, it might be a good time to go scouting for better fishing spots for next spring.
