I don't think everyone is looking for those conditions. I know personally I don't want to waste time and gas to go to a lake that has almost zero visibility. Not to mention all the floaters and debris in the lake after flood conditions. I live an hour away from any lake. Thats two hours of driving if I go down and find the lake in bad shape. Plus cold muddy water equals a very low chance of catching fish. All of this is coming from a guy that was at Cumberland last year after all the rain. I threw a 1oz Chart. Spinnerbait for 8 hours. I couldn't see that spinnerbait two inches down. I'm as hardcore as they come when it comes to fishing. I fished in 10 degree weather this winter with about two inches of snow on my deck. I guess for me its just not worth the risk of tearing up something on my boat when I could just wait until the water stabilizes a bit and go out and enjoy the day without the worries.
