After years of extreme drought, Lake Lanier is finally back to full pool. Tuesday, the Army Corps of Engineers announced it will lower the lake level in anticipation of more rain.
Jim Farmer has been fishing Lake Lanier for more than a decade. Farmer said that during his time on the lake Tuesday, it hit him that the lake has never looked better.
"The leaves are starting to turn, the lake is full, it's just a nice time to be out here," said Farmer.
It was only a year ago that Lake Lanier looked completely different, a sad symbol of a drought-stricken state.
Now levels at the lake have reached full pool levels of 1071.52 again. The Army Corps of Engineers announced it needs to take action and lower the lake.
