Muddy water warms quickly, Hancock is showing 49 degree water temp this morning.

With the long range forecast showing a nice warm-up after next week, it will most likely be windy....seems we rarely get a good warm-up in March without a bunch of gusty winds.

Water level should crest around 366.6 ft at the dam around midnight of March 2nd

By March 11th I would estimate it to be back down to around 362 to 362.5 unless the inflow from upstream tapers down quicker.

It might not be too comfortable if the wind does show up with the warmer weather, and falling water levels tend to pull the fish out to deeper water, but increasing water temps can lead to some great action as they should be getting a little more aggressive.

It's always a gamble on conditions in March with the unstable weather, but with 5 days of fishing I'm sure you'll have a couple of good ones once you figure out what's going on.
