With all the lakes and rivers in the area 15 to 30 feet over pool it's not making it easy to get any fishing done. So that said the few lakes that are open have been tough going. The water is still cold about 50 to 55 and fairly cloudy with all the rain. Which has almost been daily for a month. i've been targeting drop offs,points and creek channels with limited success. The only thing I seem to get any reaction to is a shakey head with a gulp minnow and occationaly a lipless. The graph is reading susspened fish at 15 to 20 feet. But I can't seem to get a reaction from them. If anyone has any tips that would help in this situation please help. Thanks and tight lines!!!

I sent you a PM on this one...

well finally got a bead on the high water fish. After carolina rig and swimbaits and rattle traps. The key was small finnesse worms 1/2oz spinnerbaits and small 6 to 8ft crankbaits. Dark colors with chartruse seemed to be the main color or fire tiger. But still the weights were low 6lbs took first place. But this week the temps are going up so I'm looking forward to see if the fish start moving up and not be so scattered. There were over 100 boats this weekend so the fishing pressure is high and the water was very muddy. Tight lines!!!!

I would like to have that problem we have lakes here that are 30 feet low Texas parks and wild life quit posting in feet and by percentage

Bucky - I read an article today about how low the water levels are in TX. Texas is having a really bad drought.

Yeah my Mom in Georgia and my cousin in Kaleen Texas have been praying for rain. Here in Cincinnati Ohio we have had 18inches of rain from March to May. But since then we have had 90's plus temps for 19 days. The fishing has been horrible this year. It was late spring before you could even get on most lakes and rivers around here. let's hope fall is better.
