We (Mike Williams and I) caught several fish last week to our surprize. We thought it might take the lake a week for it to settle down after coming up 9.6 ft. They are pulling the lake .6 to .7 each day and with this much water that's a hard pull and it has created a dark stain to the water in and around the river channel pulling up the dark gray murk from the bottom. The water in the creeks (Flat, McGuire, Muddy and above Dandridge) seams to be in pretty good shape. I got reports from all over the lake today and they seam to have turned on pretty good. We went today at 1pm and fished to 5pm and caught from 25 to 30 Crappie but only had 9 real nice keepers. No pic's this time ran out of time before I had to run to a board meeting.
