Has anyone ever given any thought to trying to capture all the floodwaters that seem to be increasing lately, and moving them to the more drought affected areas?

Moving? No. But apparently an early benefit of dams was to provide water throughout the year. Might see more of that.
Moving water is tricky. If you’re lucky you can move it downhill, but I expect the situations where you can do that from flood to drought is not common. Moving uphill is pretty much out because it’ll take too much energy.
