    Default Dropping water


    Have I ever mentioned I hate falling water conditions. Tried Taylorsville yesterday for about 3 hours hoping the water would be down and the discharge minimal. No such luck. Had 7 keepers and called it a day. Found fish but didn’t have much luck getting them to cooperate.

    You and me gonna have to have a little "talk"

    If I caught 7 keepers in 3hrs on T-ville after the lake has dropped 15ft in 16 days, I'd be calling myself a genius and seriously considering looking into a guiding business !!

    Seriously, though ... 7 keepers on an all day trip (for me) would be reason for celebration (with pics & a report write up).

    High current, dropping levels and cold water are never a good combination. Sounds like you still had a decent day.

    I feel your pain. We had a tournament Saturday on Nolin. They were pulling at about 4000cfs. You could practically watch the water drop. The fish were stuck tight to the stickups and were real finicky. the Livescope guys were going nuts because they could see em but couldn't catch em lol. We managed our limit but it was very tough. We got 1.92 inches of rain yesterday and Rough is already up several feet.. I guess it roller coaster time...

    Great job guys on the tournament limit! It is frustrating to be sitting right on top of fish and them ignore you lol.
    But it’s always a blessing to be able to get out on the water
