NW RI Keech Report
« on: Jan 07, 2018, 04:34 PM »
-3 degrees in the morning with the high for the day getting to 11 degrees at Keech pond. Didn't realize how much water they let out this year!!! The most I have seen in years. Had to lock down in front of the dam with max 6 feet of water and 10 inches of ice and about 6 inches of blown snow. However we had a good day and caught plenty of fish. My boy ZT33 and I fished with our buddies and had a great day!!!! Me and ZT33 caught 2 bass a 3.8 pound and a 4.2 pound. And a bunch of yellow perch. My boy ZT33 and I both caught a yellow perch while reeling in our line to check our bait at different parts of the day!!! Priceless!!!!

Me and my buddy were like what the heck??? I hope a lot of fish don't die!!! The water was coming out kind of a lot into Sand dam on the other side of the dam. We weren't sure what was going on??? They must have opened the dam up more? There is not much water like the picture above from FF like 3 weeks ago. The water level was perfect not sure what happened? I just wanted to let people know if you go to Keech pond make sure you fish in front of the dam.

Its lower than that picture ?? Oh yea not good. The dam gate  probably got stuck or they just dont care.  They drain the water to fix the docks and kill weed. Sorry to step on yur post.. You guys did real good, what a great season.  FF

It's all good FF and yes def lower then the picture you posted for sure. Your probably right they probably don't care. Hopefully they will shut it soon cause it doesn't look good. Hopefully it will level out and stop draining.

they drain water out to kill the weeds and clean up the beach, docks and leaves. I live closer to Keech pond with access private beach. I live here 8 years. Its always been like that and will come back regular level by the spring as always. I love Keech pond during summer. My family and I always boat, swim, and water ski on that lake!

I lived on Keech pond from 1987-2005 and have never seen it that low!!!!! It's really low lol. I agree with FF it just seems a lot lower then normal.
