Hi all,

We woke up on Thursday and knew the forecast was against us. However we probably didn't know what the night had instore for us, it rain between 5" and 6". We fished until the lightning started and the men, boats and tackle were soaked. We caught four bass in less than 30 minutes then went to the rooms and played cards. The first fish of the night was so cool. We were unloading our boats and I was waiting for my buddy when I threw a 7" *** Wacky Style under a dock and bam 1st cast 4lb + bass.

The next morning we fought the rain but no lighting. We boated over 40 bass between 7am and 2pm. I couldn't believe it. What a lake and what a trip. Notice the MegaStrike Cavitron Buzz Bait

This is the outcome of a down pour.

RWHusker,

That is absolutely amazing you guys caught fish on Friday, way to go.  The buzzbait also seems to kill the fish there, it was about all you could get bit on in May.  Nice fish and way to stick out conditions.

Wow looks like you had fun. Good size fish as well

I couldn't believe the clarity of the lake.  It was so impressive to handle FLOOD water and still be fishable.  It also surprised me with the quality.  8 of the 15 fish I took were between 2.5 and 3lbs.

Nice fish Rod.  A little rain never hurt anyone. ;D  ;D

Thanks Kelley,

I hadn't been in a rain like that since Lake Fork the first day we were there.  That one lasted an hour this was all night long and on and off the next.  By the way, how long into the winter can we get on the power plant lakes?

Outstanding!

Bass don't mind getting wet

Hope you won some money during the rain-out.

Thanks Katt & Dan,

Katt that reminded me of my favorite uncle when I was a kid  growing up in Montana.  We were camping and he had had to much to drink.  Had his Fly Rod, Creel and a 6 pack heading out in a downpour.  My mother yelled, "Johnny it's raining to hard to fish", and with his inebriated smile and slurred words he said "the fish are already wet anyway"  and proceeded to the creek.

Funny memory, thanks.

GO BIG RED
