eagle lake

[Simo42]

I hear of all this snow but is the run off gonna make it to eagle lake? I know lake levels were at close to all time lows last year, even though good rain on the west side, with shasta and other lakes filling the north east problems continued. Just wondering if our annual trip will resume last year we had to move to almanor because we couldnt get the boat in at eagle!

Simo, there is a good sized watershed for Eagle Lake but not a lot of runoff. Pine creek is the only decent sized creek that i'm aware of and it's not much. This is just a guess but i'd look for Eagle to come up some but not very much.

We got 3-5 feet of snow this weekend over here on Almanor!

I agree. The mountains to the west of Eagle lake looked pretty slim on snowpack after January's dry spell but we were up on Crater mtn. and Antelope mtn. the last two weekends on snowmobiles and it looks a whole lot better now. We saw an old plywood tree stand a hunter had put in a tree two weekends ago and it was about a foot above the snow. This weekend there was 2-3 feet of new snow. Now possibly more storms coming this week. Bring em on!

http://eaglelakefishing.net/eagle-lake-water-Temp-Algae.php Check out this link, Val Aubrey checks the lake conditions religously and should be informative to anyone wanting to know about eagle lake conditions. Tell your friends all the fish died and you can walk across the lake in hip waders. Keep them going to almanor lol.
