There is no doubt that fish were caught at higher rates last year during the drought but if you go back and look..2010 Butla hit 230 round May 1 and didn't get to 220 until July(Great Spawn) 2011 it almost hit 240(Great Spawn) last year these fish were not keepers and many are not now.. One thing you must remember about the 'Grass' is the fact that no time in last 5 yrs was lake below winter pool all of growing season.. This Grass has grown all the way out to the 208' water line... That makes for a lot more cover at 228 than in years past... There are plenty of fish in that lake
