Thread: Thoughts on Sardis after this rain?

I don't think they're going anywhere. Wind will be a bigger challenge than the temp and water color. I acually like the water a little off color fishign with jigs. JMO.

We caught six or seven…all were over 13 inches with one going over 14. We also caught a 15 inch striper. We fished in 7 FOW.

Most people I spoke with had about the same luck…but…on the way out I talked to a guy who limited out every day for a week. They've been catching them in 4 FOW. It's amazing what a difference 3 feet of water makes.

Heck if I know…I won't even go LOOK at Sardis when the wind is this bad!

We caught 17 keepers on friday and a few shorts. They were deep.

Fished Sardis today, muddy water is making a path and Highway 7 bridge is full at the banks. Lake will rise some, but not sure how soon it will clear, not much green grass to help with the muddy water. The water at Rocky Ford bridge which is several miles up stream on Tallahatchie is not up much, so most of the rain that came in is there, just take a day or so for it to move on down.

I caught them in the same place I got them two weeks ago. They were a little shallower. Caught these in 5 to 10 fow.
