Is the Lindsay Dam flowing water after the recent rainfall?

[sleepjigging]

I was there early September in the evening hoping for eyes. Water was shut off basically. All I caught were rock bass in the evening. Locals tell me that fishing is much better if the dam were "on".

 

Can anyone tell if the dam is running again after the recent rainfall?

 

Thanks.

Only one way to find out! Not sure about the dam, but damn are the fish biting!

the flow is very minimal.

and I have heard locals say the same thing.

Went there on Sat. night. One side was open - since Friday night. I didn't skunk but one pannie and one GSFW was not what I was expecting. I did not see many fish come out of the water.

 

However, I did meet some locals that said - the fish were on - Friday night. And the Friday before that (even with no flow.) Their most important advice: come out and fish - cause you ain't going to catch nothing from your couch.

 

Thanks guys.

Atta boy! Well because of this post I headed up Saturday night, 10:30 rolled around I got a hit on a spinner thing I've got rigged wth a minnow, and a guy next to us on a pink jig and white grub pulled out a 22 incher. After that nothing happened for an hour so I packed up.

 

Get out and fish!
