Charles, don't believe everything you read or hear. Okeechobee is still
producing outstanding fish both in quanity and quality. Past 2 weekends
it took 30 plus pounds to win 2 local tournaments. The nay sayers have
been crying doom for 20 years now. Like all lakes, if we leave mother
nature alone, she will take care of herself. The lake was there long
before you and I and will be there long after. Okeechobee goes through
10 year cycles and may be on the backside of one now, but I promise you
--- on her worse days will bring a smile to your face. It may not be as
easy now to locate the fish for some fishermen, with the loss of some
grass but, believe me, they are still there.

As luck would have it, someone sent me an article about Lake
Okeechobee, and
the effect that last years hurricanes did to the lake.

This should back up what Ronnie was saying and most likely rule out
Lake
Okeechobee as a location for next years Mid-Tenn Classic. I've
scanned the
article in as a JPEG (for now) and posted a link to it on the
Mid-Tenn
Classic site.
