Default Caney float conditions

Thinking about floating the Caney Friday morning in a kayak. generation schedule shows 1 generator between 9 and 10 AM. How will this effect the fishing and floating conditions? If I launch at the dam, how long before 9 or how long after 10 should I launch to have decent floating and fishing? Thanks

The water will fall out quick since they are only generating for 1 hour. I would launch just a few minutes after they cut them off. Often the fish will hit real good during the falling water. A lot will depend on this front that is coming through on Friday night/ Saturday morning. I have never done good on the backside of the front especially if the wind is out of the north. You should be on the front side of it so you should be fine. Hope this helps.

Dam arrive 0 mins - fallout 30/45mins

Lancaster arrive 35 mins - fallout 2 hrs

Happy arrive 2 1/2 hrs - fallout 5 hrs

Betty's arrive 3 hrs- fallout 6 hrs

Kirby's arrive 3 1/4 hrs - fallout 6 1/2 hrs

Stonewall/Thayerwilson arrive 6 hrs - fallout ....long time.
