What the hell has the corp done to the Ouachita to ruin the fishing?

We’ve had a dry winter to date and the water levels are low now, but I haven’t seen any current in it since it fell out last summer.

Now there are massive mats of some type of small Lilly pad or grass up and down the river between Monroe and Riverton.

That river used to be a fantastic fishery,

I think it’s the new norm. They were working on the Columbia dam which made it 3 feet low and from what I have heard I’that pool stage will be 18.5 from now on

It sucks because now some of the river lakes are landlocked

Some of my favorite lakes to
Fish off the river were lakes that were easily accessible at pool stage and the landowners got permits to put in culverts. Culverts that don’t allow boats in them and now they have their own private lakes. Scared there will be much more
Of that now

The Columbia lock and dam being a leaking piece of shite didn't help.
