i want to head up to the kings river and have some fun !! does anyone know what the water level is at?

[Jetdriver]

Id bet that there isnt any water yet. Ill let you know later today though.

My uncle, who lives in kingsburg, says the water is still to low for anything but lake lice or small jets.

I can let you know late tonight, I have to drive down there today for work.
Everytime I go over the bridge on hwy99 I check her out.
What really pisses me of is in the summertime when everyone is haveing fun on the river & I am working.:(

I live in Fresno and we party @ the River Bar a lot and there will not be real water till almost Memorial Day. It's so low I would not even try a jet ski in it. Pine Flat Lake which feeds the Kings is only at 45% but filling fast. We float the river a lot also and we can never plan on floating till Memorial Day. We put a flat bottom in last year for the first time, planning on more this year. Hopefully water will run for a good season this year, don't want to tear up any props!!

i drove by the other day and it was empty. Like it was said above I wouldn't even put a jet ski in right now.

Does it ever get any higher than that:confused:

[Jetdriver]

We boat up there every year, Kilrtoy, it gets much higher than that. Nice river to boat on.

I've been going there since I was a baby. The shallow spots have been in the same places as long as I remember. I've taken my 22' Schiada there w/ minimal problems, just got to pay attention.

Did a drive-by yesterday, there was only 12"-18" of water in the river.
We will have to wait a little longer!

damn ok thanks uys for the info i guess im going to pine flats thanks be sure to let me know if anyone is going to the river cause i wana go.......

looks like rain on Sat afternoon according to the news tonight.
Sun looks like 68degrees.
It has been windy here the last 3-4 days, clouds were moving in today.
Might be a not so perfect weekend to hit the lake, unlike the last 6 weekends, when it was absolutely great boating weather.

A bunch of people are going to be at Millerton April 24-25. Some of the classic v-drive guys will be there along w/ an assortment of other types..Millerton is full 100%. Pine Flat is still only about 50% full

[Just Tool'n]

Hope to be at Millerton on the 24 or 25. New motor combo should be done & in the boat by mid-next week.
I am excited:D
