where can you run on plane @ Monticello ?
is the power plant working ?
how's the fishing ?

Running
Anywhere below the road bridge (give a little room from the shallow point on the right before the dam. From the road bridge to the discharge (directly). Under the powerlines.

Power plant is running (one stack, it seems).

thanks David

PM sent. A week ago they had two stacks running.

Only 1 on Saturday

How was the fishing ?

I fished it for probably 8 hours last Saturday and only scratched out 5 fish with no size to them. The water was still in the mid to upper 80's so I still think we are a month or so from it really getting good. Of course about that time, they will most likely shut down the plant for the low demand season and the water will go from 75 to 50 in 30 days depending on the weather.

flukeman83, check you PM's.

they are still spraying the hyacinths which are slowly taking over the north end.

like Chris G, I fished last saturday from 10:30 to 4 pm other than one 50 yard stretch where i boated four fish, it sucked. found a couple of dinks down south near the dam.
this is my second consecutive trip to monti where the seasonal patterns have not been there. I believe the spraying is effecting alot of the lake.
