Eufaula

Looks like Eufaula might be shot for the upcoming week. And with the full moon (tomorrow) to boot. Most of the drainage area got 4 to 6 inches of rain today. And a pretty good size area just west of Eufaula got more than 10". Which will really muddy the lake from Lakepoint Park south. And it's still raining there.

I had planned on going Tuesday. I might need an auger to get through the mud if I still go.

I sure hope it gets it all out this week. I will be camping at White Oak Creek next week and with two teenage girls thst might be a problem......

The pinkish purple are west and south of Eufaula got more than 10". I guess I'm still going tomorrow. I will put in at Rood Creek and see what happens on the north end of the lake.

Be careful out there. There many more days of fishing but one one you....

Hey Joefishin, i looked up on Accuweather and it only shows Eufaula getting only about .98" of rain yesterday. I know here, we only had about 1/4 ". Good luck if you go i am trying to get out the ladder part of the week myself.

Hey Joefishin, Try the mouth of Little Barbour creek up on left from Rood. Last time there slaughtered them. Grass creek was slow.

thanks guys....maybe the radar was wrong. I will know by 8 in the morning. And let y'all know tomorrow night.

just stopped raining here and it was hard today. Gonna be stained for sure. Crappie like stained water. The water up here was getting to clear. Even west point looked clear. looking forward to your report. I have to fish Eufaula more this year. I want to learn more about the lower end of the lake. I know every crook from Columbus to Cottonton but nothing lower

Fished Eufaula from 8 till 3. Put in at Florence Marina. Fished Little Barber Creek. Didn't get a bite. Headed south to the Lakepoint Marina area. Caught just 4 crappie. Along with 8 bream and 6 catfish. Water was stained. Everthing looked great. They just weren't in the shallow water in places as I've caught them before at this time. I dumped 'em all back in before I left. I did see something I've never seen. A guy and his wife were fishing close to us and about 50 yards from a large gator sitting in shallow water. The guy catches a fish. And the gator raised immortal hades. It lifted it's head and tail straight into the air and bellowed like a bull for at least 30 seconds. The lady in the boat was yelling for her husband to start the motor. I seemed pretty P.O.'ed with the guy getting his fish.

Sounds to me like this was one time he needed to listen to his wife! LOL

that could have ben a frind of mine . he left a few dayes ago to stay at his traylor and fish for a weak . he was taking his wife with hem . :eek:

Going to Eufaula Saturday. Hope this cold front doesn't shut them down.

Going to Eufaula W.F.G. this weekend, going to be down at the southern tip near Ft. Gaines. Camping and still trying to catch our first crappie. I am still reading and trying to learn. My wife brought home several packs of different kinds/types of Chartreuse/Black jig baits today! (We read about those on this site.) Any pointers are most certainly welcomed.

I have a really nice GPSr that I use mainly for traveling and geocaching, but I was wondering, do people post coordinates for fishing hot spots, esp on W.F.G. and Blackshear. If so, where can I find them?

-Thank you,

We went to Eufaula. Stayed at Hardridge Creek Park. It was cold and windy. Talked to several other folks, and it seemed nobody was catching crappie over the weekend.
