Shell Knob water conditions

How is the water conditions since lake came up?  I am planning to leave at 2:30am tomorrow for a day trip.  Any help would be great.  Don’t want to make a 4 hour trip if it is chocolate milk

Don’t know if this will help or not. Friday night the water color was good, visibility was 3-4 feet.  Fishing was good that afternoon and after dark.  There were a lot of floaters and I’m sure there’s more now.  Water rose about a foot from time put in until time we left.  I believe it is up about 2 more feet since then.  Like I said, don’t know if that helps b/c I’m sure it’s changed since then.  Good luck if you make the trip.

I fished the cambell point area sat morning from 6-9. Water was clear. Could easily see 6 ft plus. Almost too clear for me. Alot has changed since them I'm sure but hopefully the fishing has gotten better. Was pretty tough for us. Threw just about everything at them in all 20 ft and under. Little top water and jig bites. Had 1 keeper in 3 hrs. 2.4 smallie on a jig in an isolated bush. Good Luck!
