The Water’s Falling...Now What?

We often joke that everyone's a hero in May fishing. Water levels are typically up, fish are on the banks, and life is good for bass and walleye anglers especially. But what do you do when you show up at your favorite reservoir and realize the water has now dropped a bunch? Suddenly those easy bank biters ain't so easy. And what if the lake drops all summer long as many of them do? How do you stay on fish then? Well, after almost 20 years of guiding on reservoirs that fluctuate 40-60 vertical feet per season, we've figured a few things out. Additionally, we've tested our theories on many western reservoirs over 14 years filming fishful Thinker TV. We'll talk through some it on this episode.
