Members Conman64 Posted March 14, 2016 Members Posted March 14, 2016 Any thoughts on why the lake is so murky still? 10 weeks since the flood and the water up towards the dam still has less than a foot of visibility. Thanks
MOPanfisher Posted March 14, 2016 Posted March 14, 2016 I talked with the biologist via email a while back about that tooic. The best we could come up with was a combination of things. The big flood carried a LOT of sediment in with it, heavy releases for extended period pulled the water all the way to the dam, creeks and river arms get flushed with new water while the main body of the lake is sort of stagnant, the water is still cold and dense and the sediment apears to have had a lot of fine clay or something in it, which takes a whIle to settle out as it is finer particles. It is slowly getting better. Jbrant 1
