River is at 679.8′ (675.5′ is normal pool elevation) and rising. Prediction is for 682.5′ by Tuesday, June 17th. If this keeps going I wouldn’t be surprised to see No Wake again. I am back chasing cats in my normal spring high water backwater spots. I hate high water.
I was out Monday and Tuesday evening in my backwater spots and caught a walleye each night on cut bullhead. The walleyes are tucked back in the timber along a current seam but I had a hard time finding any cats. Monday we picked up 2 channels and Tuesday I got skunked except for that 17″ walleye.
This will hurt the camping on the islands – they are almost all under water again.
