As the drought continues at least here in central Texas ....lake water levels are falling...including on Lake Limestone where this photo was snapped on Saturday. From looking at the water marks on the bulkheads it appears that Limestone may be about 4 feet down , which in many cases makes it difficult for some folks to even launch. If they wait too long some boats will be stranded. Rising and falling levels can have some positive effects however , especially in the long run, on fishing as low water levels stimulates new plant growth and means an increase in the food chain supply. Hopefully the rains will come this fall. Last year's rains seemed later than normal too.
If you are thinking of a weekend trip to a Texas lake you may want to check with locals to be sure you will be eve able to launch your boat.
