Yeah, and Green, Taylorsville, and Cave Run are all back on the rise AGAIN ... 1.5ft - 2ft since yesterday (& 10-12ft higher than they should be at this time)

At this rate, the Spring Fling may be the first time I get to fish

Went to fishing creek area yesterday and it was real muddy! Water up 4.5' above summer pool...water temp 54-57...did not catch a keeper...only 3 shorts. More rain and cold weather on the way according to the weatherman.

Went to Cumberland today finally managed to catch 2 one black one white. If it doesn't get better going to be a rough day at the crappie USA Saturday. Went to greasy creek this past Saturday didn't get a crappie bite.

I caught 1 this afternoon!! Got really excited.37 degrees rain/ snow Saturday crappie USA tournament will be interesting.

The tourney ain't going to be interesting for me. I went yesterday for the first time since the week before Christmas and the water the highest I have seen it we did catch fish after we spent half the day trying to figure out a pattern but after I seen the weather for Saturday I am not going to fish it....38 and giving a chance of 1" of snow and ice Friday night.
