I noticed that on the weekend. They keep that water pretty high usually for some reason.

I caution anyone hitting the water between Fitzroy and Ottawa, the water is extreamly low. Keep to the channels when doing more than a slow troll. The water depth at the end of the pier at the launch at Buckhams Bay is 1ft or less.

and watch out for the deadheads. A new crop has arisen over the last few days. I bent a prop blade on one last night in 12' of water in a spot I thought was free and clear.
