thanks for the welcome. i just "assumed" the fish were in spawning mode and was fishing the new shore lines. with the original shore lines so deep, that thought never crossed my mind. so you believe the spawn has been delayed due to the excessive waters? oh, thanks for the link!

i started with spinner bait, went to rattle traps, then to carolina rig. when i got to the points, i went to tubes.

the water at bull shoals is 40' above pool and i cant locate the fish. looked in flooded brush (forests) and main lake and secondary points. any suggestions?

I fish a small bass club and we have an up coming tourney on bull shoals putting in at diamond city. I have been to bull shoals a total of 5 times in a 10 year span. I know the waters were to crest at 695 on april 17. has anyone been there with high waters and how did you do? Every time I go to this lake, its challenging. The high waters will make it even more challenging. Any guidence would be greatly appreciated.
