I know its kind of after the fact, but I figured I would throw this out there. The last couple weeks I have been fishing the sloughs around Cutler. The first trip we made everything was flooded and there was a current running through it. Bait of choice was sucker meat. Had a lot of bites, misses and hooks that were thrown or untied by their whiskers on the way in. Went on a second and third trip to the same spot and had minimal success. Second trip had only a couple of bites but no thrown hooks. For being this early in the year they were taking the bait and running for the border. Even had a couple that went air born which was pretty cool to see. The third trip was almost a skunk had it not been for a 12" carp. The water had come down almost a foot and the current was all but gone by the third outing. Brought along a spinning rod cause the trip prior there was a few small fish surfacing so figured I'd throw a jig or sit with a bobber and worm but didn't have even the slightest inquiry on them. Hopefully the water gets a little more predictable in the coming weeks and settles a bit.
