Ok now I have the floor..LOL I have fished Logan for 30 years and never new it was a flood lake. When I bought the property people forgot to tell me all this info (owner, real estate agent, ect...). I have a flat lot on the east side also and I to catch all the garbage from up the river. I have owned it for four years now and I am starting a house this year out of the flood zone. I dont know how many people know where the river starts, but it starts in Rome Ga. At that point down it is fed by hundreds of small and large rivers. This includes the Coosawattee, Etowah, and the Chattooga and so on. They collect a lot of water and thats why we have to be so low in the wimter. When we get heavy rains in north Ga. then I know its flowing down hill and going to flood. I did have great people at the Tradesman Company build my dock and they did tell me this info about the flooding and installed a floating dock. Great investment. I have learned now how to live with it and I would not trade my lake lot for anything. You just have to adjust. 

I too think this was totally uncalled for this time and was a man made flood. If you check the levels you will see that very little water was coming from Rome and Henry was down 5 and 6 feet for five days. I just think it could have been better managed with this day and age technology. It looks loke we will have a clean up party this weekend.

I would love for all of us to get together this year and hang for one evening. We will ride down and see you this summer. Take care, GA. Steve
