I've only fished the Greenup Dam. After the rain, I can't imagine the river being any good right now. The water below the dam there is about 20' above what we like to find it at. Shame too.

I remember in '95 we had perfect conditions on March, early March. My son and I slayed the hybrids and white bass down there that spring fishing with a ball head jig tipped with a live shinner. When the water temps got over 50 it was back to a grub though..they wouldn't touch the live shinner, strange, huh?
