Just a guess or a thought. The year that the rains came to end the drought everybody and their brother was catching 11" to 13" fish with lake levels low. Fish were spawning at levels that were normal for the time, big water came in and could have had hindered the hatch. Since then there hadn't been a decent spring to have a good spawn - as far as catching fish. And here we are. Have a good feeling that this year will be different...may not be the number of quality fish you expect , but there should be some good fishing with what weather there has been so far. it's to early to call it a loss!
