Has anyone fished the south side of the lake east of Graysport Crossing road? I went down Saturday and rode in on a four wheeler to find the river had blown out flooding the bottoms all the way up to the tree lines. I was wondering if this water would wash out to the lake or if it would stay at that level till the water level according to the flood gage drops on the lake. (Wanting to fish the creeks that run into the river)

This is what happened when we tried 2 weeks ago.
Went last weekend in the same area. Plenty of stuff to fish, no fish by any of it. Water would be in the cab of the pick ups pictured
thought I was the only one that does that.
be there and done that too...
Looks like somebody needs some Grip-Spurs!!!
On second thought, After a quick inter-web search, It does not look like CO-OP Grip Spurs are still available.......
Guess they had to wait for a ford to pull them out.
Me too:biggrinQuote:

Best tires down there are big ole balloon tires with a little grip.
Another thing, leave the chain in the boat to drag with, cause the only thing getting you out is a SNATCH ROPE!
Well, I am not driving my truck out on the lake bottom. That is what 4 wheelers are far........
Last time I drove down to Perry Creek, I had to pull out a truck in a similar predicament. :)
Bwahahahaha!!! You Sir are very smart! No way I'd treat my trucks like that either!! Only Gubers do that stuff!! :biggrin Now if i had a old 4x4 that'd be different!Quote:

Bought a four wheeler with a winch.
Your pretty much wasting your time a nader now. The low water level the last 2 years messed up the span and lots of bigger fish have been taken out of the lake. This lake has taken a majot hit and its gonna be on a down cycle for 3-5 years. I been fishing it all my life (71 years old) and every 10 years or so its takes a hit. Go to Sardis before its cleaned out. They are catching limits there now and have been for 10 weeks.

Man I gotta try that wading one day. Never done it but hear a lot of folks talk about it
Fished yesterday and had waders in the boat with me but never used them. I was already fishing everywhere the folks who were wading. So I didn't see the need. I know they have their place but if I can sit in my boat and fish the same spot, that's what I'm gonna do.
I have fished Sardis all my life and i don't see how there can be any crappie left in the lake. it has to take a hit as other guy is talking about Grenada. There is no reasoning with anybody on these topics, but I sure have not heard of many fish coming from grenada this year. I am headed to Enid myself as soon as it is time to pull cranks.
Maybe if people didn't feel the need to get on the internet and brag about how many they caught, it wouldn't be as bad on the lakes anymore. I've been fishing Sardis for 25 years and it gets worse and worse every year. The internet and cell phones are making everything crowded. I think the lakes can handle the pressure, but the quality of the fish seems to have went down. Haven't caught a 17" fish in several years now.
Lot of guys feel 'obligated' to catch a limit. I drive from Mo. and generally quit at 12ish. Just glad to be able to share the wonders of Enid.
