High......water

Ok, I know this has been discussed before, I think, but in many different places. What I was wondering is, how does lots of rain, high water etc. affect different fishing?

I know there are alot of good experienced fishermen/women here, some stream, some lake, some pond...etc. So, what I was hopeing is that we would have something for the future, if we get into a situation and need some knowledge we would have a place to go.

If I am duplicating a previous post please forgive me. I just thought it would be good info to have, especially for newbies like me.

Thanks.

My general rules that if fishing high water in streams and rivers "Fish DEEP!" The slower and clearer water is at the bottom. For lakes I fish the new shore line because there are new feeding oppertunities for the fishies.
