They are opening the locks but only on the hour if a boat is there to go through and only long enough for the boat to pass through. The last time I went through down stream, I had to get up to about 4K RPM to get through because of the difference. My uncle came through (headed North) with his shrimp boat the other day and was making 11 knots going through the lock with the boat in clutch at 600 RPM.
