Anybody Been to Carlyle Yet
#7
We went to Carlyle below the dam last Friday. There were two boats of us. Did not see any big heads at all and very few gar. Personally I did not get a shot at anything. Of course there were other non bow fishing boats that had to say they were up all over the place on Thursday. I think that cold front last weekend had them down. the water is low, in fact as low as i have ever seen it. way below the culver pipes on the West side. Water could be a little clearer but who's complaining.

I was out there Sunday. Saw nothing on the lake at Hazlet in the morning - very windy and muddy. Saw some gar under the spillway but they were surfacing and dropping fast - took some shots but no luck. Saw maybe a half dozen bigheads but they were surfacing and dropping fast too. The tailwater creek was extremely muddy and didn't even get a shot off.
