tough couple of days on KY lake

I haven't gotten out in over 6 weeks, had all week for vacation but was pinned down again the weekend so my shot to fish was Monday to Wednesday (needing one day for mainteance at the place). So what does mother nature serve up for weather - a forecast of 3 to 5 inches and heavy storms. In hindsight it could have been far worst as the bulk of the rain came in a nasty batch of storms on Sunday night and another Monday night but with the lakes rising then falling Tuesday I couldn't tune into them. Saw singles busting shad up shallow Monday as the lake was on a rise but only caught a few shallow. Couldn't find them deep either. Tuesday was even worst as the wind kicked up limiting options and the fish pulled out. Fishing both days I had 3 or 4 keepers but only 12 or 13 total bass. Would have rather fished Barkley but lots of muddy water flowing in. Little River was trashed and the main lake had a lot of color so I opted for the clearer water of KY. Well there is always next spring...
