Embry:

Different parts of the lake turn over at various times. The shallow bays that are under ten feet deep don't stratify very much.

Deeper bays can still be turning over.

We fished Patoka Lake again today and fished in the same general area of Lick Fork but in a different bay this time. The back of the bay had clear water without a lot of color and we didn't see the cloudy mess on the lake bottom with the same depth finder.


What a difference a couple of days can make.

When we fished the main channel we caught more fish than in the bays.

I have a big cooler full of crappie to clean tomorrow. I hope the weather holds up and stays warm for tomorrow. I heard various reports with some calling for cold and rain and other word of mouth saying that it will stay warm and there is only a 20% chance of rain tomorrow. But the guy I heard this from I don't know as I just met him today. He could be wrong or heard some wrong info. The info I heard on the radio and TV said it's going to rain this weekend and turn colder and get down into the 50s for a high. But that was on the TV two days ago. So I don't know what to believe right now. I guess I'll find out for sure tomorrow. Either way I still need to clean these fish.
