Fished it the weekend basschamps was at Fork just after the big rains. At that time lake was back at pool. Upper ends were muddy and offcolor water started just before highway bridge. Bite had slowed considerably from Jan and Feb. bite in Jan and Feb was great on chatterbaits and jigs even with the level 3 foot low, the plant off and water temps in the mid to upper 40s. My last trip they did not want moving baits but watermellon super flukes and t rig plastics in dark colors were working in grass in the off color water and clear water by dam. Ramp is usable at lower level but super shallow getting to bank by the dock at the ramp. Havent been since but would expect them to be in full spawn mode everywhere with some in post spawn. Saw a report on here recently that water was back to 3 foot low and stained all the way to the dam. Good luck

I stopped in this week. The water is back down, but the main ramp is usable.
