Ivie has risen almost every day but 2 since it started raining in the Fall. It will go down again but it will be healthy for a good while until then. It jumped 2% over the weekend from last Friday's rains, was still quickly rising from those and the whole area caught another flash flood this morning. We could be looking at less than 5' from full pool in the next couple weeks. Fishing will be tough for awhile. Got about 5" of rain yesterday here in Angelo and several more predicted to fall in the next 3 days. Ivie and Buttes should collect a bunch more. So, what's the deal with OC Fisher?

OC Fisher and EV Spence are fed from a different watershed. Last September during the first round of heavy rains they both caught a good bit of water but sadly not much since. FWIW OC Fisher has been great so far this year but has also seen a lot more pressure cause of Buttes being so tough.

Ivie is liable to be a mudhole again in 2 years with oil booming and Midland/Odessa growing steadily. Hope not, but time will tell. Mudhole? Don�t remember it ever being that before.

Heard Ivie called many things,but never a mudhole and I will second the suggestion of don't come west right now,if the people that live out here say it's tough,listen to them.

I believe 4lbs was second in Media here yesterday. It was a rough day to say the least. The amount of shad I saw on Ivie was unreal, every where we went thousands of baby shad surronded the boat. With all the shad it�s amazing we even caught a fish. I lost the biggest smallie I have ever had hooked on Sunday, she ate a big Nichols spoon in 30� and was sitting on a rock pile. She rocketed straight up and went 2-3 feet out of the water and threw the spoon. She probably would have taken second all by herself. The largemouth bite was nonexistent. Spence on the other hand was fishing good before this rain. Haven�t been out in the boat, but caught a few behind the house this evening. She is up about 12� as of this evening.

Guess everyone has their own interpretation of what a "mudhole" is.... ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2019/06/full-107507-14099-ivie_dock.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2019/06/full-107507-14100-ivie_dead_fish.jpg)
It's only a good cast if you catch a fish...
