SUMMARY: The local fishermen are happy about the increased water levels at the Barnett Reservoir, which are now back to normal levels. John Sigman, the general manager of the Pearl River Valley Water Supply District, explains that within the last 30 days, water levels at the reservoir have increased by nearly a foot, leading to the need to release some water to prevent overflowing. This is a stark contrast to the severe drought experienced the previous year. Despite high or low water levels, the fishermen, like Charles Thompson, are dedicated to fishing at their favorite spot every day.
