And did you notice how at 10:50 AM, while all the media were facing the dam,spillways, and generators, they opened a couple of gates and ran FOUR generators? When was the last time you saw four generators running at the same time? And it still wasn't an impressive flow. I've fished there in a lot heavier flow that 27,200 GPS like they had today.

Hahahah What could the Corp say? They are wrong and choking on both feet already... This will probably be in the senate as the bill Sen. Alexander will propose. When the bill is proposed by Senator Alexander we'll have to get the country behind us to get the bill voted on.

I wish I had known you were part of this board. I would have introduces myself. channel 5 got a picture of me while filming. I had my back to the camera and was wearing a green jacket and hat.
I might have to drag my boat up there and see if I can catch some fish...!!!

Aquaholic6801 02-22-2013 10:28 PM
