The lake is at the 80+ foot level... Full.
Here is the boat ramp. Even had some people out fishing.


As we headed toward the bridge... you know that little island?


Well this is what it looked like a few weeks ago.


When the lake is full, the "Catch & Relaease" sigh on the bridge looks like this....


And this is the same sign when the water level was at 60 feet.
Would you say we've had a little rain in the last 2 weeks?


There was a lot of floating stuff.... logs, sticks, grass, trash....


Found this boat floating along the north fork... anyone loose a boat?


Water was going over the spillway at the dam.


Not like a week ago.


Who in the wide world of sports idea was it to go fishing today?

Are we having fun yet... or what?

Sorry, I forgot to mention....
Water visibility was about 6 to 12 inches....
Water temperature was 70 to 74 degrees....

We saw peacock bass swimming, red devils, lots of talipia.... and bunches of schools of shad on the surface.
We also had lots of casting practice.

At least the water temp is staying up in range. If the water level would just stabilize, some good fishing could start.

Hey I enjoyed giving you casting lessons yesterday Stan. Make sure you come a get some more mango's. Next time don't bring the rain with you so I can finish giving you the casting lessons.

Last four trips have been nothing but casting practice for me! I need to resort to the....dare I mention it....LIVE BAIT. Oh no, but I think it is time.
Saw a couple of pairs of big tucs at the ramp today. Not interested in my lures. Also saw a pongee for the first time in a long time!

hey stan that missing boat was tied up by the homeless camp under the whitmore bridge good that they dont have it anymore i think they were ripping off houses with it i was fishing for cats one nite and i seen that boat with someone paddling with no fishing poles coming down the north fork then when he seen me he turned around and whent back up im thinking he was the one who stole my kayak and my neighbors boat!

That is most likely the same boat I saw three homeless peeps paddling towards the end of the north fork last week. They were asking if there was a path they could use to get to Whitmore Village. We informed them this was private property. After he turned the bend, he let the two female passengers out. One was wearing a backpack, common practive for burglars to use to carry stolen items. I ended up telling the guy to get the girls back in the boat or the police would be called, which he did.

The boat was accross from Quanset Hut.

I should toe it back to the ramp and put a for sale sign on it.

ask if anyone is missing there boat im sure its stolen then maybe give it to someone that would use it im sure theres guys fishing the shoreline just dieing to get a boat i know i was when i was a kid. where were you guys with boats before i used to fish a the ramp everyday and no one took me out lol! but then again i dont remember seeing any of you guys!

So what how was the fishing this weekend anyything? I seen a lot of boats past by today!

Took out friends from the mainland on Sat. Was the only boat out from 7 till noon. Got two red devils, one football, and a soccer ball. Lake looks great with all that water. Tough fishing continues !
