With my dock now in the water, I have my guage.. While the water is high, it still can come up another 3 to 4 inches.... At that point in the past is generally when Winnipesaukee has gone No Wake..... We just have to see how much rain May brings with it.

As for HillCountry's statement.... While it would be nice for DES to let the lake fill more, most private shore fronts, and even some Marina's are not built to handle to much more water then 504.5 ft above see level.... In short once the lake goes above that level, DES starts to get complaints.....
