Amery Posted July 8, 2015 Posted July 8, 2015 High water all summer. Every time it gets close to wadable, it rains.
joeD Posted July 8, 2015 Posted July 8, 2015 By the way, Jimmy Walker is not doing well, and is at a Springfield hospital. Just an FYI.
hoglaw Posted July 8, 2015 Posted July 8, 2015 It looks right to me but I haven't seen the river. I know we had an issue a while back where it was all screwed up, but the rises/drops appear consistent with how it should act now. We got a bunch of rain in northwest Arkansas yesterday, and there should be some more today. It's unreal that it hasn't been at "normal" levels since May. It's just a high water summer. I know my creek has been flowing at twice the CFS as "normal" lately. In the summer it gets down to around 100, but it has been a steady 200 lately. Normally, 200 cfs means swift murky water, but this weekend it was 200 and crystal clear. I guess all the springs are fully charged and there's just a lot of ground water, albeit clear stuff.
joeD Posted July 9, 2015 Posted July 9, 2015 Is that CC or "your creek?" Because I've heard that while CC is up and roaring, it is also quite clear. Theory being that the springs are full and are pumping out clear water.
hoglaw Posted July 9, 2015 Posted July 9, 2015 No, I'm an hour and a half away. But mine is doing the same deal now. Flowing high but clear. I guess that's how it works when the water table is fully charged. Yesterday's rain had it really muddy and I thought it would be worse today, but when I crossed over it at 6 it was decently clear.
hoglaw Posted July 9, 2015 Posted July 9, 2015 Sorry Joe. Misunderstood. The picture is from my place.

hoglaw Posted September 30, 2015 Posted September 30, 2015 I heard the George's Creek acquisition fell through. Any truth to that Mojo?
mojorig Posted November 10, 2015 Posted November 10, 2015 No, we are still on track to purchase this piece of property. Purchasing property through state government is a very slow process.
