Questions about high water.

I am addicted to tight tightlining. I have always done the most of my fishing on Rivers, Bayous, Slough's, and Oxbow lakes fishing the tops next to the bank. Being more of a hunter than a fisherman I have always done most of my fishing in the summer when water levels are low. Lately I have gave up golf and am fishing more.
Here is the question.
How do you fish high, muddy water?

My favorite places are flooded/high water right now. I fish the Cache, sloughs that feed it and the waters around Des Arc, the Bayou being my favorite. But I can never catch fish when the water is high.

I have been out and just cant seem to find the fish in the high water.

I really dont like lake fishing, fighting the wind and all.

So how do I catch Crappie when the water is high?

high water aint good for crappie fishin

Depends on the lake and time of year. This time of year they will pull way back in the brush. Use a dark colored jig in dirty water.

Thanks. I will try darker jigs. I think I have some black and blue ones in the box.
