Fishing After A Big Rain

Featured Replies

Hi I am an angler that fishes Texas. In the recent month we have recieved record rain that flooded our lakes. The lakes have gone from unfishable because they were to shallow to now you can only launch boats in a few number of lakes due to saftey reasons. This great rain has made me wonder how does it affect the bass. I was wondering what they would be doing? Where would they go? How long would it take for them to go back to normal?

I live near lake Grapevine and have fished there often since the floods. The lake is at least 20 ft over and hasn't changed much since the rain. I don't expect any immediate level change but on the bright side I have caught more spotted bass than ever before on the lake.

We've got really high water here in KS too. Bass park themselves on the bank next to cover in high, muddy water. They haven't been real hard to catch either.
