Justin, I was out of LB yesterday (Friday) water depth at the ramp and most of the marina was 3.0-3.5'. Going out the channel, staying down the middle, depth was 2.6 to 3.3. At the mouth and buoy line depth was 4.0-6.0 and in the area I stayed south-west ish from springs to orchards deepest water I came across was 8.8'.
When I was leaving about 1:00 p.m. there was a quite large cruiser, maybe 25-28 foot, that launched. Don't know how much that boat drafts, but he seemed to make it out the channel without problem.

When do we need to really worry? And speaking of worrying, what's this about the lake being closed because of algae? I had seen some scum a couple of weeks ago but the water seems good and clear now. Anybody know?
Craig, I got to LB yesterday about 8 a.m. no one else there, no rigs in the lot. I saw the sign on the entrance drive, but I figured lake wasn't really "CLOSED" or they would have blocked off the ramp like they have in previous years. I saw just a little floating grassy, scummy, stuff that was kind of eddied up at the edges along the rocks, but none of the big floating blobs of green goo out on the water. When I got around to the area between the L and the Orchard there were 3 or 4 "waders" out up to their chests.
