White Bass?

[npierceuark]

yep they are moving up and around there in full force

Gotcha. How's the water level?

[bferg]

So I have avoided Twin due to the large crowds...let me ask you this: if I put my canoe in at twin would you recommend going up stream or down stream to get away from the mob?

[npierceuark]

water is low and clearing nicely, I have been fishing downstream because that's where i can walk easily so I don't know about upstream, I can say below twin has been packed with boats but there have also been good amounts of fish being caught

Good fish man ! You are really swaying me about this Arig ! I never thought I would throw it ! I would really like to get out but , but I have a long weekend of crappie fishing with my pops !

Don't hold me to this, but I've seen the whites really turn on in the backs of coves in the Indian creek area after a big rain like we've just had. It's hit or miss, but if they're there you can have some good fishing without the crowds.

I hear you there Quill- was thinking of hitting it tomorrow afternoon maybe...

How blown out and muddy do you think Twin will be on Saturday? Had plans for Saturday afternoon down there. Wouldn't you know the one day I get a free pass from the wife to finally put all the flys I have tied for White Bass to use Mother Nature screws me!

[J-Doc]

I wonder if all this rain is going to mess up all these fish you fellas have been catching. If my final boat part comes in tomorrow.....I hope to put the repairs/tinkering behind me and get back to fishing for a change. . If there is going to be trash all up river.....I'll wait for it to settle as its not worth it. I'll go try something else.

It didn't come up as much as I thought it would. It's about the same as the big rise we got two weeks ago or so even though it seems like we got a lot more rain. River came up about four feet I think and will drop very quickly. Water temp dropped over 10 degrees though, and may continue to stay low over the next few days. I think the river ought to be in good shape again by next weekend as long as we don't get any more rain, but there's some in t he forecast.

The bigger issue to me isn't so much when the water will be back in good shape, but whether the fish will still be doing their thing when it gets there. It seems like it's pretty late to still be catching them and it was really just getting awesome this week.

the lower water temps should keep the spawning run moving, so it might a good thing t extend that.

I would look at it as a positive factor.

Clear creek fell out quickly, its running clear and swift behind my house
