The recent heavy rains have really muddied up the creeks and filled them up with debris from Cranfield to past the Robinson Point areas. The debris is moving with the wind. The middle of August also brings early morning fog so this combination is bad for props so watch out. The lake is very stable at 553.12 and they are running one generator just enough to keep it that way. The rain has muddied up the water on main lake points as well as the creeks and the visibility, which was good to 25 feet is gone. Bink reports that the rain had little effect except the level rose a few inches in the dam area. It is still clear and there is no debris. What a difference a few miles can make. He is catching walleye at the mouths and part way back in the creeks in 32-34 feet of water on the spoon. He is concerned about the stripers. They are schooled in 150 feet of water 35-40 feet down in the middle of the lake and there is no oxygen deeper than 45 feet. They want to go deeper but cannot. He says if it does not cool down there could be another fish kill. It is susposed to cool this weekend. I hope so we do not want to lose our big striper. People are catching them by trolling umbrellas. Smallmouth and Kentucky bass are off steep banks on the ledge at 25-28 feet and are schooled. Catfish are with the walleye near the bottom. Bluegill are on brush and crappie are scarce. The lake It is at a good level. The surface temperature is 89. Different tactics for different parts of the lake.
