stick, if you fish the high water, a lot of fish move up into the 'new' areas and hang near structure or high grass.
That is a fact alluded to in my comment to JHAP, "Since the water is on the banks in the prairie grasses fish are up in there too enjoying new (to them) delectable critters".
Always fish the vegetation areas that are recently covered by high water events. The fish aren't always there but they are more times than not.
