Went and checked out Hwy 31 & Neches R. The muddy water is all the way up under
the bridge a couple feet below the road. The current is really moving. The new
asphalt parking lot is almost an island & the new metal fence just disappears
a few yards to the north. On the south side, the water is almost up to
the picnic tables - or to the 3rd row of trees. Doesn't look like there
will be many places to fish without some sort of boat this weekend.
Kickapoo's current wasn't as focused as Neches/31 bridge.

Went yesterday morning to Kickapoo. Two Kick gurus were coming back to
the "Ramp" - a bad sign - as I was about to push off. The current was
too strong for them. They hadn't caught any the last (4) trips over the last
(2) weeks. I caught one female on a white curly tail pearl body/blue head jig.
Water temp was 50 deg. Didn't make it to the RR tracks.

Current was too quick for comfort at Kickapoo Wednesday. Had to play nice guy and tow a boat back. FYI it ain't smart to go a mile downstream in a flat bottom with no motor and the intent to paddle back. Thanks to those of you who moved out of the way for me to come through to the ramp.

On a lighter note, I did see one amigo pull about a 15lb blue out on one of the bridges.

Went Monday morning to Kick. Water was 56-58 deg & clearing.
Several of us found pockets of small males.
Guru's said that ANRA had opened the floodgates
(on L. Palestine) and let 1.5 ft water out with
an eye out for predicted rain events Wed, Fri, Tues.

I fished at 31 just upstream from the bridge Sunday morning and Monday after work. Caught a few small males and a whole bunch of freshwater drums. Seen some folks with stringers of females and said they caught them way upstream. I may try today after work and walk upstream as far as I can and see what happens.

Most fisherman on "Kick" were mainly catching small males.
Comparing notes on the few females. "Catch any with eggs in them"?
Nope. Water temp 60 deg. Still thinking most will spawn
on windy lake points. Unless the reports from Neches
above Hwy 31 are different than "Kick".
