I am all for higher winter water levels. Anything above 480 would be great for me and should allow most, if not all, plenty of down time to work on docks.

I wanted to comment on John C that said 79 water temp is cool for some ... I am sure this is correct and don't doubt it a bit. But I used to live in upstate NY and their is a natural lake in the foothills of the Adirondacks call Lake George. A very big lake. You could not even swin in the lake before July 4th and the water temps would be in the mid to upper 60's. Sometimes by mid August it would get up to 70 to 74 .... but that was about as high as it ever got.

But there were parts of the lake 600 to 800 feet deep as well.
