Dog Days are Here

Lake Oconee

Water is clear Water temp is 94 degrees We have offically entered into the dog days of summer time and the fishing is as poor as it will get all year. The pumpback causes warm water to go back into the lake, which in turn keeps the lake from developing a thermo-cline. What does that mean to fishing? Simple, no oxygen. I put it to a customer a few days ago and said, "If you were in an airtight room, which would you preserve, oxygen or food. The fish really don't think about eating, when they are just trying to find cooler water to stay alive. So the fishing is not so good right now, but all will change in a few weeks.
