Snrub, the last 2 years have been the worst we've ever had for aquatic weeds, and it just so happens we've also had historic amounts of rain during that same period. Our big pond stayed almost at full pool for those same 2 years.
I certainly don't want another drought, but I sure wouldn't mind a foot or two drop every summer.
If a person had one of those water control level structures, and was confident the rain being predicted in a few weeks would materialize, a person could drop the water for a few weeks. Not knowing when the next significant rain is coming could be problematic though.
