Get this....the other day I was fishing Coffeen and I was in the hot water arm. Water temp was 62 degrees up there! They were pumping away! Did not catch a fish in the warm water though. I had to move to the cold water that was in the 40's and low 50's to catch crappie. Once I found them though, it was fun! The power plant lakes can be funny like that. Very "Hot or Cold" , no pun intended, and it has alot to do with that plant and its cycles.....in my opinion.
