    All 7 of them were open last week also.  Good thing I got some fishing in yesterday when there were only 2 open.

    Anyone ever see it come out of the top hatches?  I think it would be a sight to see...  I know I hope every year to ride out to Conemaugh or Loyalhanna and see them with the top flood gates open because I'm weird like that... LMAO
