According to the coe laurel site, it is saying that the water temp as off oct. 30 was 55 and at 20 ft 51.... WOW ITS FNF TIME GUYS!!!!!!!!!!! Anyway does anyone know if the water has finished turning over yet???? it should be done or be on the backside of the turnover atleast. Any info would be appreciated, plannin a trip there this week or next.

Thanks for the info...... Going to try it next week sometime... If I get a cloudy day that is. So from Flatwoods up towards the river it is turning over right? So I wonder if it has already turned over from grove down towards the dam and towards holly bay and craigs creek. I was planning to fish up past holly bay and thats the area I like this time of year. Anyway I will Post the report when I get back If I go.

the water is clear & in good shape on the holly bay side of the lake but with these cold temps for these next several nights expect a sudden drop in the water temps & more turnover water john

Thanks for all the info john... I Absolutly love laurel lake.. even though people call it the dead sea. You just gotta change what ya do to catch a few. That should be the slogan for laurel..lol Its really a good place to fish.. Expecially in the winter months. Im still going to go next week anyway even if the water is turning... Maybe find some clear water and catch a few still!
