Fish'n Report

[Paco]

9/8/11 "Buffy" and I fished from Tucker to the flats below Barn Hollow. Nothing (no walleye bites), 1 large drum, 1 yellow perch, 1 short Kentucky, several blue gills. Here's the info that might be of use to someone. Water temp was 78 degrees at 7:30 am and 80 at 3:30 pm when we left. Saw thermocline at 29 feet at the mouth of Bee Creek and Mincey. Other parts of the lake only had visual thermocline ever now and then. The wind action may have created some current that might have effected the TC. The yellow perch was about 3 inches long, looks like they be reproducing. Didn't see very much action on top (fish chasing shad). Hope the lake gets back to normal, had dropped 7+ feet in 2 weeks, I personally think that till the level stablizes that the fishing is going to remain "poor" at least for me!!
