L.d.w.f. Announces partial drawdown of chicot lake
The water level will be lowered two feet from pool stage at a rate of two to three inches per day beginning April 26. The gates will close on May 3, 2010, or once the lake is lowered to the required level. It is expected that the herbicide application will be made on May 4, 2010, barring any significant rainfall. Although the lake will not be closed to fishing, boaters are advised to maintain a safe distance from LDWF boats performing the application on the north end of the lake and near the south landing. The herbicide purchased for this application is SONAR PR® and SONAR Q brand of fluridone. This EPA approved herbicide interferes with the plant?s ability to produce food and causes the plant to slowly break down. The herbicide has no water use restrictions and is not harmful to fish. Fluridone, an active ingredient in SONAR, needs to be in contact with the vegetation for at least 30 days for effective control. The removal of 2 feet of water from the lake prior to the application will allow for better concentration of the herbicide in the event of a significant rainfall. This application will not eradicate hydrilla from the waterbody, but will significantly increase access and enhance opportunities for recreational activities. |

Best thing they could do with that garbage lake is drain it all the way an fill it witch concrete. It's 10 minutes from my house and I refuse to fish there.

haha I pretty much agree. I think what they should have done is instead of florida bass just put regular black bass in there and it would be 10 times better. Every place i fish with florida bass seems to suck. |

There is just soo much pressure there. It's not a huge lake and there is really not alot of other good lakes around it so it gets pounded.

It only sucks til you catch one 10 plus, then you will love it. It's just not a numbers lake.

Well I'm a numbers person. Personally I rather take my chances at Toledo Bend or Millers Lake to catch a hog.

Been doing pretty good on the sac-a-lait over there.
