Warning For Under Water Point

[Josh Holt]

I just want to let everybody know if your going up the flatt creek arm follow the channel stay off the left side because I have seen three boats now hit this under water point that is 1 to 2 feet deep and they come to a dead stop. Word to people who dont know that area the lake is low if you dont know the area or the channel swing slow down and idol cause you might end up like the three boats that hit this point.

Are you talking about the area above Mash Hollow or some other place?

[mic]

Man where's the pics.

[Wayne SW/MO]

Is that the old roadway, east of the present bridge?

[Josh Holt]

Its just up the flatt creek arm on the left hand side just above point 15

[Josh Holt]

went yesterday and we had a limit before 10 oclock then the rain came

[Dutch]

Wayne I think he is talking about the beginning of the big flat above Mash hollow where the channel takes a sharp hook. It is very shallow on the left all the way up to the old bridge, but that pt is an abrupt change where it jogs.

[Wayne SW/MO]

I see. I wondered if it was the old 173 road bed. I knew it extended out some, but I've never seen it in real low water and I didn't know how far.

[Dutch]

I don't think so. An old road bed comes out of a pocket about where the 173 sign is on the map. It runs down the side and along the bluff right above Mash Hollow.

[Wayne SW/MO]

There is one that is just to the right of the bridge. It looks like a little square ended projection with a blue road marking leading almost too it. It has, or had some pavement still on it. there's a shallow cove between it and the bridge fill. I don't know anything about it beyond normal pool. There was a two track that led down to it, but it was rough and the last time I was there it looked to rough to try, and I didn't.
