    Default Any Chance


    of catching a fish after all this rain? I really want to try Eagle tomorrow after lunch but hate to burn the fuel if all the fish drowned.My resident old timer tells me it takes 3 days for the fish to bite after a big rain.Guess my question is does rain affect the bite on big bodies of water? I doubt it got muddy.

    Would you mind explaining why that is, John?

    some places wont muddy up, they will just rise. ifn you know where such places are you can usually catch fish there even after a big rain. As the lake itself rises the lake water, now muddy from the rivers, will muddy these places, takes a day or two. Will put it to a test tomorrow and hope I am right, Nader has been pretty tuff anyway, am sure this wont help it any.

    I would think because it takes that long for the run off to collect.Eagle does not get that much run off. I was gonna stay close and fish my little 100ac lake but it has come up over 4 ft.
