Call me crazy but we actually waded Hickman today. The water was up about 2 feet, and boy was it cold. But we managed to stay in it for about 4 hours. We caught 22 fish, 4 smallmouth over 2 pounds, with the biggest being 3 - 31/2 pounds. Caught several nice largemouth and a whole slew of smallies between 9" - 12", and a carp about 3 lbs. It was a pretty good trip.

We went last Saturday and caught 21, including a 3 pound smallmouth. Been great week at Hickman for us.

Hoping i can wade it at least 2 more times before it gets too cold.
