Not real sure how the boat got through the dam, I don't fish that end a lot but I thought the release gates let water out from below the waterline. about 20 ft down if I remember right.

In KS. at coffey county aka Wolfcreek power plant lake they will not let you on the lake if the wind is blowing above a certain MPH or is supposed to that day.
It white caps something awful nothing to block the wind at all.

A lot of Pickwick lake runs east to west. Current runs west, when there is a wind from the west it stacks the current up into monster waves. It can be one of the more brutal lakes on the Tennessee River. In places it's close to a mile wide so the wind can really howl. Along with underwater rock piles and other shallow structure If you don't know the lake better off going the first time with someone who does know it. It regularly produces trophy Smallmouth 6 pounds and over but it can be deadly going after them. I've fished there for 40 years and I still find shallow places I didn't know about and are not on any maps.
I truly feel for these people and their families but there are several accidents on Pickwick almost every year. A shame two of these are so young. I've seen people run up on top of the rock piles and mess up their boats and motors more than once.

Read this morning the missing teens and father are still missing, their boat was found approx. 15 miles down river , below the dam, near Savanah TN. it said their motor wasn't working right at the tournament start and were going to fish using the trolling motor.
