I'M FISHIING IN A TOURNAMENT NEXT WEEK FRIDAY. THEY ARE PULLING WATER AT 1960 CFS TODAY AND HAVE BEEN PULLING FOR A WEEK I KNOW OF . LAKE LEVEL IS UP 5.4 TODAY LOOKS LIKE ITS BEEN DROPPING .2 ADAY. THERE IS A COLD FRONT MOVING IN NEXT WEDNESDAY ITS BEEN 75 THE PAST TWO WEEKS. THE WATER TEMP THIS TUESDAY WAS 59 ON THE MAINLAKE 66 UP THE CREEK. MUDDY UP CREEK CLEAR MAINLAKE TOURNAMENT DAY TEMPS ARE A LOW OF 34 HIGH OF 58 DEGREES. IS IT BEST TO FISH THE MAINLAKE OR GO UP THE CREEK UNDER THESE CONDITIONS. THANKS, BILL

If it were me.....without a doubt.....I'd go up the creek into the dirty water with a chartreuse & white, double colorodo blades spinnerbait and fish any cover I could find.

The bigger bass are in the mainlake right now. I've been fishing all around the Indiana/Michigan border and nailing them. I got one over 7 yesterday, no joke. Look in about 20 feet of water. If you find them they'll be in schools and big fish will be there!
