robery82 Posted December 28, 2015 Posted December 28, 2015 The water temps were in the mid 60's today and we are less than A week away from January!? The lake is about 4ft over full, people cannot get to their docks and there is a LOT of debris floating around (logs, trash from litter bugs, minnow buckets, chairs, large tree branches and logs) I tried shallow, deep, humps, points, pockets, deep brush, trolling, docks and everything in between today. not a bite. Anybody else been out there recently with better luck than what I had today? Quote
BrownBear Posted December 28, 2015 Posted December 28, 2015 Went this morning killed them up near Cherokee. Found them on the back side of islands from the wind with anything Brown and green plastics. Bite stopped around 0930. Quote
robery82 Posted December 28, 2015 Author Posted December 28, 2015 lol. There's my problem. I waited too late in the day to start. good job sir! Quote
BrownBear Posted December 28, 2015 Posted December 28, 2015 Thank you sir, and sorry about your timing. I did find out that the power generation stopped around 0930, so you might want to call the Corps number to find out what times the will be generating (letting water out). Quote
robery82 Posted December 28, 2015 Author Posted December 28, 2015 i stopped by the dam on my way home just to look around. it was around 3:45 and they had all 7 generators going. the water was only a foot below the pier and it was moving fast! there was only one person fishing, he said the only fish he'd seen caught that day was about 30min before they started. he hadn't had a bite. I was planning to go back up sometime during this week, but i just noticed a burning clutch smell from my transmission (auto.), so i'm pretty sure i'll be spending my next few days off under the truck instead of in the boat.
