Drawdown makes Roosevelt shore fishing difficult
FISHING -- The big drawdown at Lake Roosevelt -- much more dramatic than last year -- is making boat launching difficult at all but a few ramps.
Even shore fishing is getting tricky as wthe water levels drop so low and fast that anglers are reporting the banks in some areas are as "treacherous as quicksand."
The water level seems to be dropping a foot every time you blink.
