Dead on Saturday. 2 fish seen for about 150 people. The numbers will increase till April. Water fluctuations are your biggest enemy. High water also will keep those fish cruising.

I haven’t heard any reports that make me want to go, including friends fishing it every day.

What was the water visibility around blue Creek?  It still looks dirty on the camera?

Intetesting, TPU reported over 500 fish last week. That is high for this early, yet crappy catching. I got plan B ready for just this situation!
