WAS DOWN BELOW THE DAM SATURDAY AND WATCHED A COUPLE GUYS STANDING OUT ON A GRAVEL BAR WHEN THE HORN WENT OFF. THEY JUST LOOKED AT EACH OTHER LIKE THEY WEREN'T SURE IF IT WAS FOR THEM. THEY WALKED OUT FINE, NOBODY HURT, BUT IT GOT ME THINKING HOW MANY VISITORS REALLY KNOW HOW FAST THAT WATER COMES UP.
THE AGFC WEEKLY FISHING REPORT SAYS IT TYPICALLY RUNS TWO UNITS FOR 4 TO 6 HOURS STARTING AROUND 3 PM. THAT'S A LOT OF WATER AND IT DOESN'T WAIT FOR YOU TO FINISH YOUR CAST.
WHAT HAVE YALL SEEN OUT THERE? I KNOW SOME BANK ANGLERS LOSE A GOOD SPOT WHEN IT COMES UP, THAT'S JUST PART OF IT. MY HABITS: CHECK THE SCHEDULE BEFORE I LEAVE THE HOUSE, KNOW MY WAY OUT BEFORE I EVER STEP IN THE WATER, AND DON'T PARK MYSELF ON ANYTHING THAT'S SURROUNDED BY WATER ON THREE SIDES. ANY OTHER TIPS WORTH PASSING ALONG TO FOLKS WHO AREN'T FROM HERE?
