Can Sharks Survive In The Mississippi River?
A recent study has revealed the possibility that a certain shark subspecies may be capable of swimming up the Mississippi River from the Gulf of Mexico. The report looks at two documented reports of shark sightings, a 1937 incident on Alton, Illinois and another in 1995 near Rush Island, Missouri.
These reports caught the interest of Paleontologist Dr. Ryan Shell, a research associate at the Cincinnati Museum Center. He teamed up with Nick Gardner, a West Virginia University Potomac State College librarian to study historical records to rule out hoaxes and misidentifications.
Scientists note that the bull shark is able to adapt to living in freshwater environments including lakes and rivers. This particular species of shark can feed on whatever food source is present, including other fish. Other species of shark can only survive in saltwater........

Asian Carp Update 22 Pound Silver Carp Caught In Lake Calumet, Mere Miles From Lake Michigan........
On Friday, the Illinois Department of Natural Resources reported that an invasive silver carp was removed from Lake Calumet earlier in the week. The 22 pound, 38 inch long carp was caught by crews working with the Invasive Carp Regional Coordinating Committee and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.
Even though the carp was caught in waters just seven miles from Lake Michigan, it's capture wasn't an indication that the invasive species are reproducing beyond electric barriers intended to keep them from entering the Greta Lakes.
The invasive Asian carp can grow to over 100 pounds and four feet in length. Thanks to their size and rapid reproduction rates, the Asian carp are a threat to the food chain supporting Great Lakes fish........

Back in June, Scooters Rentals opened up at the 4 Mile Marker on the site of the long closed restaurant, The Duck. The business has quickly become a one-stop shop for boat rentals, gas and snacks on the lake.
Beth Randall and her husband Tom were frequent visitors to the lake before making their moving there in October 2021. Beth says that the legacy is important to them, and they hope to build off of those memories.
While Beth swore that they would never be in the restaurant industry, after seeing the property, they saw that there was a legacy that had to be upheld. Currently, the Randalls are in the process of restoring the restaurant portion of The Duck. They expect to be opening next summer........

Upper Missouri River Basin Long-Term Drought Conditions Remain........
Over the past two months, the runoff into the Upper Missouri River Basin has improved, however, it is not enough to overcome the long-term drought that is persisting in much of the basin.
The July Runoff in the Missouri River Basin above Sioux City, Iowa was 3.2 million acre-feet, which is 98 percent on normal and 0.7 million acre-feet than was forecasted for last month.
The increase has led to an annual runoff forecast of 20.6 million acre-feet, which is eighty percent of the yearly average runoff, and a 0.6 percent increase over last month's forecast........

Illinois River Near Bath, Illinois 15th Redneck Fishing Tournament This Weekend........
This weekend, hundreds of anglers are heading to the tiny village of Bath, Illinois to participate in a unique fishing event, the Redneck Fishing Tournament. The event originated as a way to control the invasive Asian carp, and has grown from there.
10 year participant John Patterson says that Bath has turned the invasive carp problem into a community celebration. He says that teams come from all over to participate in the event. Some teams event don costumes.
This year's Redneck Fishing Tournament is raising funds for two causes. Some of the funds raised will help local homeless veterans as it has for several years, and some will go towards breast cancer research and resources. Tournament founder Betty DeFord is currently battling breast cancer for the second time........

Mississippi River Near Buras, Louisiana Over 600 Catfish Seized In Illegal Fishing Bust........
On Wednesday, five Mississippi men were cited and facing fines and possible jail time after wildlife agents caught them with several hundred catfish along the Mississippi River near the Empire Locks at Buras, Louisiana.

River Des Peres Corps, U City Look For Flooding Solutions........
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is teaming up with University City in an attempt to find solutions to flooding issues along the River Des Peres. The city says that bridges and narrow channels cause problems because they are not wide enough to handle large volumes of water.
Gregory Rose, University City's city manager says that the channel where it is routed underground causes floodwaters to back up, which in turn causes greater flooding in the region.
The city is two years into a three year flood risk management study with the Corps in an effort to identify a solution that will minimize flooding in the area. Rose says that the study is evaluating a lot of impacts, from buyouts to reconstructing homes........

Gulf Of Mexico Dead Zone Drought & Sluggish Mississippi River Means Smaller Dead Zone........
On Wednesday, scientists report that the ongoing drought has made the Mississippi River sluggish, which in turn is leading to a smaller than normal dead zone in the Gulf of Mexico.
Every year, researchers cruise the region to measure the dead zone. Lead researcher Nancy Rabalais with the Louisiana Marine Universities Consortium and Steve Thur with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration says that this year, the dead zone covers 3,275 square miles, which is just under 70 percent of the average sized region forecasted in June.
The oxygen-depleted area typically spans from the Mississippi River westward into Texas waters. Rabalais says that this year, however, it is stopped at the Atchafalaya River. The hypoxic zone is still considerably higher than the goal of a five year average of 1,900 square miles or less set in 2001........

Mississippi River At Quincy, Illinois Art Keller Marina Set To Close After Next Season........
On Monday, the Quincy Park Board made the decision to close the Art Keller Marina after the 2023 season. The 250 slip marina opened in 1967 and has been operating at less than half capacity and operating in the red for the past three years.
Quincy Park Board President John Frankenhoff says that the decision was made during the Park Board's annual planning retreat, where they laid out the 2023 operating budget for the Quincy Park District.
In addition to operating losses, Park District Staff reports indicate that over $450,000 in maintenance and upkeep work will need to be performed within the next five to ten years. Frankenhoff says that unless something drastic changes, the marina will be shut down........

Lake Of The Ozarks Bagnell Dam Testing Emergency System Today........
Ameren Missouri has announced that they will be testing the Bagnell Dam Emergency Warning System at noon on Wednesday, August 3rd, giving downstream residents that opportunity to review their safety plans.
Travis Hart, manager of operations at Osage Energy Center says that the siren tests are intended to keep residents prepared for the extremely unlikely event of a structural failure at the dam.
The Bagnell Dam warning system is in place to alert residents and visitors of emergencies at the dam. There are three sirens along the Lower Osage River covering the first five miles below the dam. The system uses a distinctly different sound from the region's severe storm sirens and also uses a voice announcement during the tests........

Boat Attitude Control Seakeeper Introduced New Motion Control System........
Seakeeper recently announced that they had released a first-of-it's-kind vessel attitude control system that is reported to eliminate up to 70 percent of vessel pitch and roll while underway. Seakeeper Ride is the company's first deviation from their line of gyroscopic stabilizer systems.
Seakeeper says that this technology has never been used in the marine segment. Attitude control systems have been used in the air and space industries to control roll, pitch and yaw. Chris-Craft, Scout and Sportsman will be making the system standard equipment on various models.
The Seakeeper Ride unit mounts on the transom below the waterline and using proprietary inertial sensing hardware and software, it takes 1,000 per second to determine the boat's behavior in all three axis. Custom rotary blades are used to make 100 adjustments per second at speeds of up to 300 millimeters per second to manage vessel motion instantaneously........

Hi Bill! Did you meet Dale Grey Beard Sanders on the river? I met him at Hoppie’s! Such a nice guy! In his canoe, Dale is attempting to break the record for oldest person to paddle from source to sea on the Mississippi. He is 87. A film crew is following him and creating a documentary of his trip. Follow his adventures at https://www.greybeardadventurer.com/
See you on the river!

Mississippi River At West Alton, Missouri Work At Lincoln-Shields Progressing........
Crews are working to remove the spillway in the Lincoln Shields Recreational Area, which allowed high water from the Mississippi River to flow into the shallow basins along lower U.S. 67 in West Alton, Missouri. Contractors are also doing other work along the levee in the area.
Problems with cars, crowds and graffiti prompted the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' River Project Office to close the Lincoln Shields Recreation Area to the public back in Mid-April. The site remains closed to the public........

Lake Of The Ozarks Get A Front Row Seat At Shootout By Volunteering With LOWA........
The Lake of the Ozarks Shootout is scheduled for Saturday and Sunday, August 28 - 29, 2022, and the Lake of the Ozarks Watershed Alliance is offering boaters a front row seat for the event.
The Shootout is the Lake's largest unsanctioned boat race, and to keep the event safe and fun, patrol assistance is needed to make sure spectators don't get too close to the action. The upside is that volunteers get a premium spot on the water to watch the race, plus slips are available.
