trees

Yes, trees on the bank, trees in the water and trees under the water I also couldn't find any place to wade into the water. And the sticker vines everywhere.

The best placed I stopped at was on a high bank with trees all around me and sticker vines at my feet. My fly line was constantly caught up in it, tearing it up.

But I would do it all again tomorrow. Great fishery

I've lived on Palestine for over 20 years , I never caught a yellow until a couple of years ago , I wonder how they got in ?

Mo

Birds are usually the transportation device for both fish and zebra mussels

Thanks for the update and glad you caught them. I probably won't make it up there again as the catfish slip cork bite is getting hot and that's closer to home.

i stopped yesterday . It was packed. I forgot mud boots so I could not get past pasture going up the river . Some fish being caught but no big stringers in area near big parking lot. I was trying to fish a road runner without a swivel and major line twist ended my stay in a hurry.

Went there this past Tuesday fished just south of hwy 31. Not many people there, all I caught were yellow bass.

Anyone been this past week? Taking my boys out there tomorrow. Are they further up river? Or closer to the lake?

lotsa yellows. did catch some nice sandies not far from bridge one day. kickapoo in yak did well once I found em. this was a week ago
