not only in the meterological sense...but in the fishing sense.

i swear it seems like i aint caught jack in the past 2 months almost...a few smaller ones here and there but nothing to write home about...

cant wait to start catching some fish again...this is one of the worst slumps ive ever had...

It's been a bad year for fishing thats for sure. We need rain bad.

Looks like we are not going to get any rain here to speak of this week. Yesterday it looked like a big storm was headed our way but it broke up before it got here .there are stroms headed in this direction today but I doubt they will make it. That has been the pattern this summer,I'm usually the first one to get mad when the rain muddys the rivers .But I would welcome it today.

no joke...disappointing as far as rain goes this week. water is really really down everywhere...fern lake isnt usually this down til september...the head is already starting to completely dry up...if we dont get some serious, serious rain, by late sept/october it will be super bad.
supposed to get rain last night, like you said i think the majority broke up before it got here. and theyre giving rain today but the radar shows a different story.

one up side...saturday the high is supposed to be 81...makes for great riding weather and fishing temp too.

Yeah, it seems that every weekend has been just beautiful, but the fish have just not wanted to bite, makes it a little frustrating. Seems like a great day is catching 10 or 15, last year that was a slow day ,. Well like mamma always says "on through the fog".

yeah i dont think ive had a day this summer where ive caught more than 10....id consider that a great day. bigger fish this year...

but youre right...this past month...few months...have been terrible on my end. hopefully theyll be hungry this weekend. going to get a bucket of crawdads and hit every spot i know up.

Man we got "RAIN" tonight ,I thought they had outlawed it. It was dark here when it started ,so I don't know if it raised the creek that runs by the house but it rained steady for about 2 hours(I hope it did).

got some good rain in middlesboro as well...same...for about 2-3 hours. saw some puddles this morning, was a real good sign. hopefully will make the fishing a little better. couldnt hurt it, thats for sure. gonna hit powell up late night tonight and check er out.

weve got some much needed, heavy rains over the past 2 days...supposed to keep it up for another week according to weather. hopefully this will help fishing a lot...

I hope it does, the fishing has been slow to say the least.

tried fishing powell last night....man oh man was the water up...and murky. too fast and too dirty to do much fishing, we left after 30 minutes of not a bite. im hoping it will really improve the fishing in the next few days though.

If we get any more rain this weekend may be a wash. but it will be worth it if it helps the fishing.

man alive its coming down like a cow on a flat rock right now...and from the radar looks like it will be all night and maybe tomorrow morning. this is really gonna raise waters in the rivers for a few days...supposed to rain tomorrow and sunday too. that means next weekend will probably be really good.

I hope so. I've even thought about going trout fishing, the smallie fishing has been so bad

Man just looked at the radar link at the top of page,..BCO and area is still getting a lot of rain.

River is up & muddy here from the rain the last few days.
