Just got back. The water color is good: green and clear down a few feet. Water temps started off about 80 and hit 83 by the time I quit (2:30 PM--too hot). I put in at Possum Ridge (excellent ramp and much better than Van Buren) and fished toward the dam. I got a few hybrids on a rattle trap (couple of pounds each). Not a bad day, but I could not believe how busy that lake is even on a week day. Sometimes it was a bit difficult to navigate with all of the catfish noodles on the lake. I saw at least 12 boats with 30-50 noodles each. I see now why the KDFW was downgraded the catfishing for Taylorsville; no fishery of that size could sustain that kind of pressure. Not wanting to offend anyone--just an observation.
