Reelfoot Update

Well boys, that time of year again. Decided to go early April this year instead of mid/late...and go figure, last year was warm in the middle/End of March, this year, not so much. Stupid Jet Stream. All I can say is better warm up quick! Lake is full, that's a good thing, but that usually means "muddy" waters. Anyone been over to Kirby side? Bet it's a chocolate mess. Any pads coming up yet anywhere? Whats the water temp's. I know it will only take 4-5 days of some warm weather and sunshine to crank it up, but good grief...that seems to be no where in site for the next 10 days. Guess I better bring my trolling gear...........

Headin' there too on the 26th. We're hopin' for the same. I hear the water is 49 degrees. Fish are deep 8 - 10ft. of water. Muddy water and boys are using bright colors! If I hear anything else? I will post. Can't wait to go get em'

Water was 50 on the north end last Friday (15th). But I found some places that had 55. Kirby and North end pretty clear. But we had some rain Sunday night/ Monday morning so it might be stained up some. It is going to be cold next few days but it should be warmed up and cleared up by the time you get here Greg.

I'll be calling ya soon Al. Low 17 here tonight, that's crazy. Just about got everything ready, string up poles etc. make sure and come visit. Dal may even take you pad fishin....

Water was 48 yesterday and pretty clear in the upper basin.
