patoka

[ElectricSLT]

Fished Patoka today. Water was 54 degrees and very clear - 3 to 4 foot visibility. Good chop to the water with the steady wind. Caught 4 keepers but had to work for them. Nice day to be out as I was one of three boats on the water and it wasn't cold. Rain started late in the day and I headed out. Saw a lot of deer too.

Wife & I fished there last Saturday & Sunday and found some fish Saturday but they seemed to disappear Sunday. Only saw 5 boats all day Sunday - but like you said nice day to be on the water.

Fished Patoka again today. Morning water temp was 49 and I knew I was in trouble with the high skies. Temp eventually warmed up to the 54 range but I struggled, only catching 4 shorties. Beautiful day to be out though. Saw two eagles and more deer. Heard a lot of shots today. Must have been a good day to be a deer hunter. Water still way up and super clear.

i heard today the lake has turned over twice this week...

[nofearengineer]

Embry...a lake can't really turn over multiple times in quick succession. Strictly speaking, the turnover is the rapid equalization of water temperature, from top to bottom, usually brought about by the top layer sinking. This usually stirs up a bunch of muck from the bottom.

So, in other words, the lake temperature can't become "more equal". Equal is equal.

What people are probably referring to is the muck from the bottom. If some of it made it to the surface, perhaps someone thought of that moment as a turnover, then when they saw more a couple days later, they considered it another turnover.

I' m one of the fishing department floor supervisors. so don't think my guys won't know what is being said about them. By the way Embry do you have any connection to Got 2 Love It bass organization? Either way my guys will know what is said about them. So enjoy your next visit to the Bass Pro fishing department.

Wow, aren't you civil? This makes me want to NEVER shop there again. And I do believe a BPS representative will be getting an e-mail from me. I can't believe what level you have taken this to. Obviously, if a worker did say that about the turnover, then he is a retard and nothing Embrey said is out of place.
