[QUOTE="Davy Crockett, post: 97484, member: 367"] That's the strange thing about the whole deal, What is "normal" ? We had an old neighbor when I was growing up who was quite the fisherman and he used to talk about how low Devils lake was and told me how the town of Churches ferry got it's name . At the time I couldn't imagine a ferry running on DL . Meanwhile almost every other lake in the state has had stable water levels. Holding capacity of Pelican and joining chains to North has been mentioned but it seems like either further up in the watershed or the outlet to stump or both something has changed. During the same time period as Devils Lake shrunk up In The Turtle Mountains the old timers drained a lot of ponds for farm/hay land . [/QUOTE]
