Default percy priest water level

Are they letting the water down to winter pool at percy priest yet. I've been fishing the river and haven't been near the lake to see. I'm going crappie fishing tomorrow so i'd like to know what to expect.

Thanks

They have the spillways open, but the lake is still at or above summer pool.

Talking

I'm getting excited about crappie fishing tomorrow! I'm predicting slaying them and at least getting one limit, possibly two if my fishing partner gets used to the crappie bite. Hurry up 6am!!!! Jigs, tube bodies, and minnows.

1/16 oz and I'll try the crappie magnets to. They've produced good for me in the past.

Boy was i wrong. Everyone i talked to weren't catching any numbers. I had 3 keeper slabs and a few shorts. My partner boat got 9 keepers with no short fish. I jinxed myself. I think I'll stick to cattin for awhile.

I fished with MNfisher and neighbor Bill on Saturday from 11-5. We hit brushpiles in water from 12-25 ft. Caught three keepers, lots of shorts (but not a whole bunch of shorts).
We used tube jigs, tubes with minnows, bare hooks with minnows, bobbers. We just couldn't find keeper fish in numbers. Two of the bigger ones came from 24 ft of water.
