Pella —
Each fall, the Iowa Department of Natural Resources is authorized to request a two-foot lake raise at Lake Red Rock for waterfowl migration; however, due to continued drought conditions, there is not enough water in the system to accomplish the raise this year. Boaters using upstream portions of the lake should be aware of mud flats, shallow water and changing wind conditions.
For more information, contact the Corps office at (641) 828-7522 or (641) 628-8690.
