Trav, come out and give us a good update on the lower lake..

[Trav]

Water is too warm down here. It is insane. 68 at my dock. And it is on the channel side.

Expect very few reports from me.

Even the warm water species are moving up to the dam to get O2. I think that Mr. Babler and Mr Lilley can explain how fish react to low O2 better than myself.

I am exhausted by floods and hurricanes and the lake being tossed like a salad. I might still fish the lower this winter some but I don't expect many results. Will only fish to enjoy the fact I will wet a hook but the numbers will be humiliating.

Sorry to say.

Of course, I have only scene these situations once in my life and I have lived here a short thirty years. Maybe I am used to a norm other than most.

If you want some advice from Trav on the lower Taney, all I can say is if the shallow water is cloudy your not going to catch anything but desperate bows.

Take my advice or leave it. I can bet my bottom dollar that every trout worth a catch is trying to catch their breath below the dam and no where near the lower.
