About the only time the water gets pushed out that far is with a strong north winds for a few days

And you dont want to fish in that stuff

Yeah, yeah, yeah, widgeon grass.

I'm with y'all on this one. Those weirs ought to be opened, even at the expense of the grass. That could kill quite a few fish, and a few days wont harm any vegetation.

Problem is, like I said, there is a management plan that they have to go by.

I think were talking about behind the weirs only. Everything in the lake would just book it to the channel.
