It's flooded there atleast ten foot of water need to be drained. Then I thinks bank fishing possible. I tried from the bridge for an hour I didn't get any bite.

Yeah its going to be hard to fish there for a while. Hopefully things are good by the spring. Been a bust of a winter so far.

As per the forecast 1-2 inches of rain expected. So expect minor flooding again in that area. If no rain another 30 days then water level decrease to favorable bank fishing. These pictures took yesterday

Tried it out from the yak today. The big bad skunk reared it's ugly head but at least the goatman left me alone. Beautiful day and I got exercise so I cannot complain. Talked to another guy on a yak who was kind enough to share some details. He caught 3 small bass. It was hard to find concentrations of fishing on the graph and when I did find them they were pretty much all small.

I should mention that with the lake over 8' up, Hickory Creek is a lot more like a deep canal or river versus a creek. The excitement of finding 8' ledges and massive trees fallen over in the water faded for me as I realized the entire creek is so full of great cover like this that the fish are spread out. If I were to bank fish I'd probably use a slip bobber set 8-12' deep. Over course with the rain today it's going to put the crappie fishing on hold for that much longer too.

It's safe to say that hickory is going to be a bust for the a while. It has got to stop raining for this creek to produce (well crappie anyway).

If the dam breaks we can get to them! Just kidding of course. They really have to do something. That is terrifying to think about.
