I have been fishing a private pond for a few years and the pond has dropped a considerable amount over those years. With all of the rain we have received the ponds upstream have had to release a ton of water. Over a weekend the pond i fish has raised between 10-15 feet. What will that do to the fish? does everything get washed out of the creek or should i follow a standard fall pattern and fish the more shallow creek. The pond has had two weeks to stabalize before i will be out there. Any advise would be helpfull.

Actually, it could be a blessing in disguise. That new water has covered up a lot of vegetation and structure...and if temperatures remain relatively moderate, the bass will be in those new areas looking for forage, once visibility permits.

And, the forage should have a spawning explosion.
