I think the lake being lowered and played with so much on elevation changes it has really affected the lake and the bite. So very poor spawn classes have occurred down there since all this fix the dam stuf has started to. I also feel the lake needs stricker reg's on the smallmouth fishery to, 18'' isn't enough. In my opinion numbers are down some in the lake compared to years gone by all the above have contributed to it.

Of course all these are my theory's and opinions and I'm sure somebody will get on this thread now and tell me I'm crazy. They are there and some gooden's to, keep chunkin, fall is coming and when that water gets back down to the mid 60's it will really heat up, I hope, lol. Good fishin to ya.
