will they bite?
Pitching a big Jig up in the flooded timber always worked for me when the water was outside the banks. Not tons of bites but usually quality ones.
I plan on staying off the main lake. I think the warm rain coming in some of the bays will get the fish shallow. Taking extra rain gear and boots....
Bang the banks, Any type of structure and you will find them. If you come across a feeder creek, that's even better. Blow downs, fresh covered grass, weeds, good also.
Throw a jig in there, maybe a lipless crank and skirt the sides to see if they will come out and play.
This morning the lake is at 595.1 feet. Flood warnings have been issued for Jackson county as 7-10” of rain is forecast. Water will likely be released in advance of the heavy rain but this weekend water will be high and fast on the main river. There will be a lot of debris in the main river that is hard to see. Some ramp docks may not be useable.
Will goose pond ramp be usable? Also can you get under all the bridges or will the water be too high for some?
