Jimmy, Rick thinks on a different level than the rest of us when it comes to this type of stuff. He has probably forgotten more about these issues than I will ever know.

As far as minimum flow is concerned, I am happy to see anything that will improve the fishery. I am very concerned about what it will do to wade fishermen such as myself, I might be in favor of minimum flow as it would relate to "maximum water temperature".

My personal feeling is that there is considerably more damage being done to the fishery from low oxygen than anything else. I'm afraid that all minimum flow will do is just add to that effect when we have low DO levels in the lake in the winter time.
