Sam I believe you are 100% correct on why the lake is so low. They must maintain the integrety of the stream that flows below the dam into Jacobs Creek. The farm below the dam uses the water for his cattle also and without that additional water Jacobs Creek could become "stagnunt creek" before it hit the Yough. A lot of water gets evaporated from Jacobs Creek and Bridgeport Dam both during the summer and dry breezy fall.
Just my nickles worth.
