Should be plenty of water to bring the white bass up the creek. With the lake above normal none plenty of room for them.

The lake has been at or a love pool since summer. More than enough water for them to get up the creek. Looking forward to a good run. Depending on the rest of the weeks weather, I may run up the creek on Sunday.
If I fished for money.........I'd be broke.
In a world of compromise.....Some don't.

JMO. There’s another 1.5-2” expected today. If Corp will keep gates closed the spawn will be near excellent. We all know how they work… I’m sure by end of week gates will open and they will drop lake below pool.

Lake Level is 238.68 ft. The gates are still closed. 1 CFS is just the normal leakage through the gates. I don't believe the weather man anymore  Everything looks good to at least have a run as good as 2020. We came into that season at normal lake level and had small rains to keep it moving along. At this point it's already better than that.

for some crazy reason i paddled up the Yegua Tuesday to the Wolf Pond area. the creek was very high and moving very fast. muddy water made the fishing bad. ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2022/02/full-88842-127009-yegua.jpg)

there's also a newly fallen tree across the yegua about a 1/4 mile from the mouth. it will be difficult for a larger boat to get through right now. kayaks and jon boats should have no problem

I wonder if the COE site is not updating or if that location is getting flow from other creeks. https://www.swf-wc.usace.army.mil/somerville/
