Chucky,
I tried as shallow as I could , threw jigs back into the bushes and tried fishing them at the edge. Hard to get very shallow, it was still about 10 ft over pool on Sunday. The water still running back into the trees and bushes a lot. I fished some of the banks I normally catch them on when they spawn but no luck.
Green has been a big puzzle for me this spring.
Good luck and let us know how you do
let me know if you think that a man would be able to catch some next week. do you think the lake will be back to summer pool by then. thanks a lot truckered
You can see the changes day by day in this report.Quote:

The good news is that most were loaded with eggs. The lake was very hard to fish at this level and just getting your boat in the water from the ramp was difficult with a fiberglass boat. Water is at the top of the actual ramp at Lone Valley and I couldn't back in far enough there to launch at the shallow angle with my heavy fiberglass boat. Ramp One had the gate closed so I went all the way to Holmes Bend to put in and the water is still over the first parking lot but a man can get a boat in there.Almost all of my brush was either gone or moved but there is a lot more wood that wasn't there last month so it should be a fun summer trying to find stuff again.
I know we are hoping for a good spawn. Been wondering if eggs in the fish is good or bad sign. I really don't know. Just remember reading that
when conditions aren't good or the fish are stressed they will just absord the eggs back into their body as protein and not lay them.
Would like to hear from our biologist friends and see what they think.
I may try to get back over on Friday. Not sure I want to fight the boat traffic rest of the weekend.
Good luck to all,
chucky i may see you down there friday.
Plan on being there Friday as well. Anyone know what ramps are open right now?
Hey slabeye, did you all do any good? I didn't get my boat back together to go today. Going to finish it Saturday and maybe try a half day Monday. Would try Sunday but got a cookout.

Found out a lot more of the cover I been fishing is gone. I am surprised there is enough current in Green to move it , even when they are pulling fairly hard.
Anybody goes out Sat or Sunday let me know how bad the rec boat traffic is. I want to try it again on Monday
i didnt get to go. maybe i will get to go in the next couple of days. I will let you know how i do.
