Cody S. Smith - Fish Greers Ferry

The reservoir is topping out 8 feet over normal pool and clearing in all the main and minor creek arms.  Water surface temps peaked last weekend in the mid 60's and now the runoff entering the lake is a cooler 57 - 59 degrees.  This really backed the fish out that had already pushed toward the backs of minor creeks and in some degree the major 3 arms as well.  Most of the best fishing has been in major and minor flats off the main lake and in the creeks as this water is much more stable and has consistently fished better and better each day.  Lot's of crappie, small mouth, large mouth and white bass are congregating on these flats and seem to feed better than the creek or river fish, at least for now.  As this week goes on and more stable warm weather continues look for the tributaries and the minor creeks to really turn back on in shallower water with inflow.
