Thread: Lake Lemon

Took a 4 hr drive today. lake Lemon is up 2-3 ft and will drop next couple of days to normal pool, Ice free but upper half is pure mud with a lot of floating debris going with which ever way the wind will blow it. Mud line to dam will eventually make entire lake pure muddy as streams into it are still high with heavy runoff. Water temp at the launch was 39 and along the south drive 40 in one place. No docks at launch and launch site had piles of leaves and debris and a little trash so take care to launch.

Monroe is Ice free. From the causeway east entire idle zone is muddy to heavy stained all way to Paynetown launch, rest of the lake to the Dam is beautiful blue clear water. Water temp at Cutright launch was a cold 37 as well as over at the high water launch site. Floating debris in the lake as Monroe is 3-4’ high and rising still so be careful when running. No docks at Launches.

Never saw a boat anywhere! And one bank fisherman only.

The one time I've been to lake Lemon, I had a lot of luck just dragging a jig/trolling.
