Water levels continue dropping in our fisheries in the Dry-Zone S.East. The Marmelos river is above 1 ft in the mid section, but it has drained almost to the perfect level in the headwaters and greatly improved in the upper lagoons. Tendency is expected to continue in the coming days with a positive weather forecast.
