I never liked stalks in stained water but if youre fishing the upper end of CH I dont think you have much choice. Do you know which creek youre planning on fishing? I think PC and NF you'll find the water to your liking. Looking forwards to seeing youre results. Good luck.

As usual I come up with a plan and something changes it. Right before leaving my daughter came to me and said she wanted to go. I’m not going to turn down that opportunity, so I loaded up a pillow, sleeping bag, heater, and snacks. Didn’t take long before the big dreaded question came up “ how much further”. I made a detour over to upper Russel and fished there instead. Launched the boat and she wants me to take her over to look at a sandy area for rocks and everything but fishing. Eventually made it to a pinch point in the creek to set up. Didn’t do much fishing but we did catch 4 good size crappie before calling it a night at 8:00. It was a wonderful trip and caught a bunch of memories but not many fish.

Sometimes making memories is far better than catching fish
The love for fishing is one of the best gifts you can pass along

Your trip was worth ALOT more than going to the hill just to catch fish. Congrats to you and your daughter on time well spent together.

You'll have to give it a few days if you want to fish the upper end now. Alot of water has been introduced.....
USGS Broad River near Bell shows the gauge has risen over 5 feet in the past 3 days.

Thjis has GOTTA be a fluke! I dont see any way the entire lake can rise 6 feet and fall 6 feet in just a couple hours. Especially with just 2" of rain. That high of a rise woulda washed out the entire Broad River camp including most of the lake houses around that area with a rise of aint-no-telling how many feet of water rushing down Broad River to make the lake rise that much that quick! Whatcha think?!?
