Current Lake Conditions

[Fish24/7]

673.42 and rising, fairly clear w/ some debris and trees floating around in the Theodosia area.

can still launch a boat off the road next to the swimming area in the Theodosia park

IF you can get the swimmers and their parked vehicles to move out of the way,lol

saw a couple rigs w/ boats just turn around and leave after multiple attempts to launch while trying to avoid kids swimming around and diving off the courtesy dock which is almost a foot underwater now. If you want to launch there do it early before the swimmers show up.

Nice

675.16 and rising, CR 863 obviously closed

As long as they are running more water out of TR than they are letting out of BSL, BSL is going to go up and up and up.

[Fish24/7]

676.95 and rising

Wt 78

watch out and be more careful, some areas in the Theodosia arm and other feeder streams still have lots of debris. The further up/back you go, the more debris.

When I fished a week ago in the lower lake, all the debris was on the shoreline which made me think that the lake had creasted . I wish I had been correct.

I fished in the Oakland / pt.16 area Saturday. There were a few rigs in the parking lot at Oakland. We had a 3 boat trip and ate lunch there, seems a couple of boats were launched and picked up. Courtesy dock was completely underwater. The Welcome ridge access had a few rigs and the courtesy dock was above water and looked usable. The lake seems to have crested today at 677.5 lets hope we don't get more rain downstream and the corp can kick the units on. The walleye & SMB bite was fairly good. We didn't try trolling crankbaits, seemed the water was pretty trashy. But crawler rigs were catching walleyes just outside the brushline 21'-26' and the SMB were biting smoke /silver grubs on the gravel points. I launched my boat at Browns beach, courtesy dock was mostly underwater had to wade knee deep to do it. Bull Shoals dock behind the shop is doable but parking really sucks after about 10 rigs.

Any word on Tucker Hollow and /or Pontiac ramps. I am going tomorrow. I would rather do Pontiac, but I am open to ther idea of Tucker Hollow.

[Mike Worley]

I talked to a friend who launched at Tucker several times this past week, so I think it's ok.

Please post what you find out Ham, I'm going to be down early next week. We are probably staying at my friends house in Branson, so tucker hollow may be the deal if we decide Bull Shoals over Table Rock-
