A couple of things to consider before getting too gung-ho:

1) The dirt bars don't have to HAVE structure to BE structure; removing them would definitely be detrimental to the fish.

2) removing big solid masses (the dirt bars) from the lake means that the lake would hold more water; this means that it would take more water to fill it up. And if we're having trouble filling it NOW...

Old-time posters used to talk about how it seemed as if the powers-that-be were intent on turning the lake into a giant swimming pool; they were talking about lining the shore with sea walls, but I think leveling the lake bed would be an even bigger step in that unfortunate direction.
