I guess I'll be putting in a little farther back again. Im not to fond of crowds when sharp objects are being whipped around.

Since Im pretty new to all this, maybe someone could tell me how far back from the gates I can go and still have a good chance of pulling out a decent sized catch. I know the crappie spot farther back, but what about flatheads or stripers if I wanted to have a go at them?

the flatties should start to bite in a few days,,,, hybrids a week or two if all 10 gates stay on..... sandies are always in there. they just dont leave when the gates turn off due to they dont jump over the dam at 78 when the water stops..... as soon as the gates turn on you can see shad along the wall 2 minutes after the gates open..... there is a ton of bait in there to sustain everything till the next release.....

and SONFISH: I OWN THE DAM! - so when i show up, yall have to understand something, you must leave the area immediately, you are tresspassing on my property......

I went down stream from 78 today due to the crowd and tore the crappie up. i used minnows this time. caught well over 100 between the 2 of us in the fish cats.... marked soe huge fish on the graph, had to be gar.... but the shad were so thick, my graph said it was 2 ft when i was in 14 ft of water!

Was at the Dam early Monday morning in the rain and while damfisherman caught a 25lb flat head I caught a 102 fever. It was worth it however cause I got to see and learn a few things on how to catch these monsters from the infamous Damfisherman. If y'all ever get a chance to meet him he is one cool and tall dude.

I was there this morning from 11P to 5A. Lots of folks there when I arrived, some decent channel cats being caught and some crappie too. Folks complained about not finding any shad so I went down a ways trekkin through the grass and threw my net three times. Pulled out 50 or so shad, cleaned the cockleburrs out of the net and then headed back to share the bait since I wouldnt use that much bait by myself. Found that the folks I was talking to had left and the ones still there didnt seem very receptive to me being there so I set up on the bank just on the other side of the railroad bridge. Bite was slow, and I need some of those no-roll sinkers.

Lol last year one guy was like that. He almost got bruce lee kicked off the wall. Dude was talking smack to me for 20mins. I held it in until I couldn't hold it no more. He was complaing that I kept snagging his line. Well shiet that wouldn't happen if he casted it towards the dam not downstream. I walked all the way to the top and confronted him. Dude got scared and took off lol
