Meanwhile, Rock-Koshkonong Lake District Board of Commissioners member Frank Micale reported that despite rumors stating otherwise, all of the gates on the Indianford Dam are open.

“The Rock-Koshkonong Lake District now operates the Indianford Dam, and all gates are open and have been for a while,” Micale said.

He noted that rumors have been flying about stating that the gates were closed to slow flooding downstream. However, that is not true. He said that there is a lot of water flowing from the north.

“We’ve got more water coming in than going out,” Micale pointed out, asking that boaters go slow in residential areas.

“Follow the slow/no wake signs,” he said. “The walleye fishing is under way and we ask fishermen and boaters to be considerate of people on shore whose properties become damaged by waves.”
