I like the idea of higher water levels for a couple of reasons: First, for those of us that have homes on a slough it would give us year round water which would increase usability and property values. Second, it will reduce the volatility during drought years such as what we experienced last summer.

I think having winter pool at 485' would still allow reasonable maintenance on docks and seawalls. I also don't think it will necessarily increase winter boat traffic but it would in the fall and spring. In normal years I am done by early October but this year I can be on the lake until the end of the month. I was also able to float my boat much earlier this year which was nice.
