Green

Anyone been to Green in the past week?
I didn't make it last weekend. Seems like we all had a hard time the week before.
Just curious, I hope to get over there this Sat.

Good luck to all,

rode down to holmes bend, water is below the second parking lot now, water is about 1/2 way up on the ticket building now.. Still going to be a while until it is back to normal. Good looking color though.....Heard a lake record bass was caught last week........

They are pulling hard. At the rate of -0.8 inches a day it will be another 16 days till it reaches summer pool. Thats if no more rain is added. Its going to be fun trying to find some of the old cover. But just like
last years flood there is going to be alot of new cover.

Is the holmes bend ramp open I was thinking about heading over that way tomorrow? Any info would be appreciated and is anyone catching any crappie?


Thanks in advance,
kyman

i went out early friday and caught several fish. kept 10 keepers. still have eggs I would have thought they have spawned out but not yet. fish still fairly deep. they are drawing lake down. should be in good shape this week.

fished Sunday morning and only managed 5 keepers and several short fish. Casting jigs
Was surprised how deep the fish were, I could only catch them between 20 and 25 feet deep.
Also found the high water and strong currents this spring have moved some of my cover, I could not find some of it.

I just got off work and am heading down to fish. I will post a report tonight when I get home.

Does any body remember what the water temp was this past weekend on either end of the lake? If i can get my boat back together by Thursday going to come down Fri and Sat if the rains from all this week
doesn't raise it to much.

Chucky,

I fished from Butler Creek to Holmes Bend. Water was 69 in the morning and warmed to 71 by the time I left Sunday afternoon.
Good luck

Colayn,

What was the shollowest that you tried? Normally on Green 69-71 is prime spawning in 2-8 ft on spawning banks. But they are dropping the water so you may need to back out a little more. I will make it down Friday
even if it kills me unless it floods again. That is the only reason i have not fished there this year is cause of the flood. Got to fish Green only once before the flood because we doing tourneys. Buy the time they were
over Green was almost 20ft above summer pool. Thanks for the water temps and good luck.
