Depends on the water temp . They will follow the water up into the shallows , unless the TVA pulls the plug. I used to catch them in the bushes on spinnerbaits while fishing bass tournaments , whenever the water was over 359' and above 60 degrees .
You can bet TVA will pull the plug, it's just a matter of how soon will they do it. It's probably gonna play hell with the spawn in our neck of the woods.
You wouldnt think they would pull the plug too much being its just 12 days till summer pool time.
I would think that they will see how much more rain we get this week before pulling the plug. There is already going to be high water down river so I would think they will let all that run out before adding more to it.
Hold Water Hold !!!!!!!!!!!!
DTG, when are you heading up there? be sure and let us know whats going on.
We plan to be there a few days before we head out to grenada.
Prob. go tommorrow.
If they are in the bushes then we will have to ditch our plans for Big Sandy and head down river WTC. :D
