date. But I'm not so fond of raising the Winter level at all. In fact, were it my decision, I would lower the Winter level another 5 feet to 475, then plug this sucker up earlier in the Spring or even LATE Winter (when is the pug date now anyway?).

But I'm not so much of a "recreational weekender" anymore, so not being able to pull my boat up to the dock in January doesn't bother me in the least. It does the lake good to show more of the bottom in Winter, at least more often than once every 10 years, and it is good for those of us who have maintenance to do from time to time (mainly cleaning up other people's trash).

I've been here almost all of my life, and I've never understood the obsession with the Winter level, except for those who are only worried about the lake being at full pool (plus 6 inches) the instant they arrive for Summer until the moment they leave in the Fall.
