Keep the updates coming guys. I'm stuck here in Houston and won't be able to make it up for 2 more weeks. Good news is as of 2 days ago my dock was finally floating. 3 weeks ago half of it was on dry land.

Brazos at Seymour is at 1550cfs. In 2014, it was 0.00cfs at one point.
River got another big dump this evening between Seymour and Olney. Alan Henry is running heavy still around the dam. Looks like it rained 2-3in along most of that stretch from Seymour to Olney. Ideal for PK. If the lake does not come up past 990msl tomorrow, I may have to call bs. Good news is more expected thru Sunday.
This is all great, but only complaint is it might make the fishing tough - which I was planning to do this weekend...Randy "PK Fish Whisperer" Wood can tell us for sure... What say ye, ole wise one?
Or maybe I will just head out there to watch it rain all weekend....

Randy can always catch them but it may be tough for you. If the water is dingy better get some bait. Last weekend I saw a guy fishing from a canoe and he had a full stringer of nice stripers he caught on perch, so you won't have to have shad. Shad would be best but they are very hard to keep alive. Plus throwing a cast net in PK can be expensive because one of those petrified cedars is not going to give it back if you get on one. There are several hanging from cedars in Neely slough to testify of this.

I agree with everything you said. Did not mark any significant fish from Grady Spruce to the Darn last weekend on the graph. Not many bait balls either. Just not there. Fish must still be upstream. Perhaps the heavy river flow may indicate a successful striper spawn if at all possible..?? Have not mastered the cast net yet but need to practice. Def the key to the elusive and magic shad. Discovered last Summer that the striper were more than happy to eat perch after hearing many say they simply wont. False.
BTW, more incredible rains over the right area for PK inflow. Brazos at South Bend (right above PK) gate is at 19.72ft and a flow 11,900cfs. Wow. Lake hasnt budged, but it will - has to. Likely more coming in foreseeable future.

captaincam3: The stripers we have been catching for the most part were from a spawn of the few that survived the golden algae during the flood of 08.

That's real good news catfish676: By the way, what is the website for that info?
I just hope we don't get so much flow the BRA opens the flood gates and sends our stripers to granbury.

A lot more headed that way. Brazos just west of Knox City is out of its banks and rolling good.

If they let 1 non-required drop of that prized water out of PK...may be marshall law out there.
Lake is up to 988.44
