Lake level is real high still over 15' .....it should be two feet lower then what it is......it will be a challange for everyone.....

[Mike Cork]

Challange meaning the fish will be in new water from what they normally are? Or Challange because there is so much new water for them to be in?

[Pferox]

MIke, alot of the new water used to be Pine forests.

Oh yea I forgot to ask, what time can we launch on Sunday.
Bill J, is comin with his boat from Nalequest and wants to do a one day thing.
I'm tryin to plan this thing out to get us all there at the same time.

safelight is a good time...Sunrise is at 06:57.  So safe light should be around 06:30 or so.

Challange meaning the fish will be in new water from what they normally are? Or Challange because there is so much new water for them to be in?

The bedding sites I know of were in 5 feet of water.  Now those same sites are in 8 to 10 feet.  My challange is that I'll have to start from scratch finding the new beds maybe.  I'll know by Friday......I hope
