Thread: Reel Foot Lake condition....

Water was 52 degrees yesterday. Lower lake is pretty cloudy but not as muddy as I thought it would be. I drug minnows all over the lower and caught one fish. A nice 14 incher. Had one other bite. Beautiful day with perfect trolling conditions just no fish.

Thanks for the report

Went somewhere else yesterday after I was there Saturday. Water was is a foot and a half higher then normal if not more. The fish are just not used to that kind of water change. Until the water stages itself back out, I don't think it's going to be good. I am curious to see how Sunday was with the bright sunshine and calm water. Hopefully some more people can chime in.

A buddy of mine went Sunday afternoon and tried some shallow trees with no bites then went out in twelve to thirteen feet of water and found some good fish only fishin four foot down. Several boats around him and none was catching he said they were fishing to deep, so some fish are biting you just have to find how deep they are in the water column.

We had 30 monday morning between 2 boats. 16 fow 4 to 6 feet deep on south end.

Way to go Cody

I can't wait to get back down there. Will be down April 23. Was dreaming that I was there last night.

They are going to be fishing a car out of the south end of the Washout today that went in there last night. I wonder how many brush tops that messed up? The people got out safe.

They must have got it out I was down there around 3:00 this afternoon and there was no activity. Wind was howling so no boats on the water on the south end and only a couple guys snagging at the spillway. The weekend looks good for fishing the lake...

Hopefully things have started picking up a bit. Looks like we have a pretty nice weekend ahead. Hopefully we can start putting some fish in the boat in force.
