Lake Lillinonah is currently being drawn down approximately 8 feet below its typical operating level (6.5 feet below minimum summer level) as a flood control measure due to current Housatonic River flows and the additional rains (possibly significant) in the forecast. The use of both state launches (Route 133/steel bridge launch and Pond Brook launch) by trailered boats will not be possible at this depth of drawdown. Refilling will depend on precipitation amounts and river flows. Anglers can call FirstLight Power at 1-888-417-4837 for updated lake levels (and Housatonic River flow) information.
