Was the water high enough to get to Orange??
NO, and it looks like it would take a real bad storm to get it to good level. put it this way its going to be a long time before cross creek will be used. All water levels down there are low. http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/eek.gif
I kinda figured, I haven't been there since just before it got impassable...I could help a little on Orange, but I'm lost on Lochloosa
You can put in at the ramp in McIntosh and fish Orange.
I stopped by the Tackle Box Saturday on my way home from Gainesville and asked about Orange and Lochloosa. I was told that there's a lot of grass in Orange and the better fishing was in Lochloosa. Was told by someone else that Orange was happening! http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/doh.gif http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/Laugh.gif
Pulled down to the ramp at Newnans Lake and asked a couple of guys if they did any good, Neither said they had a bite all day(bream or bass)! http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/eek.gif
The grass should be dieing off soon with this cold weather coming. As soon as the water temp drops fast ( Hydrilla ) I have done good in Orange in the winter time I put in at the 441 ramp and it is so steep You can launch in two feet of water and it will drop to about 5 feet quick. I called my buddy who lives down there and he said that they are still launching boats there. http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/newyear1.gif
