  1. I wade fished around outlet 1 3 nights labor day weekend and Friday and Saturday nights last weekend and was able to throw pine squirrels and hibenaters in both white and black. Caught 23 with half of them browns labor day and last weekend 18 on Friday night with only 2 being browns and 6 Sat night in only an hour with one brown. Good size on both rainbows and browns. One night friend I was fishing with caught one at outlet 1 on a spoon that probably went 8-10 lbs and 25in+ he didn't have a light and the fish was as wide across the back as his hand would stretch. I hooked one that pulled loose after a 5 minute fight, first fish I have had to put on the reel in awhile. F2F I

  3. When my knee problem started affecting my fishing (couldn't get up the stairs at Taney) I had to bite the bullet and get a replacement. It kept me out for about 10 weeks, that was in 2007. Had orthoscopic on the other knee in 2012 and felt better coming out of the hospital than when I went in. But the worse pain I every had was sciatic nerve pain that started in my right hip and would shoot down to my knee 4 weeks ago and could not stand for more than 15 seconds or walk 20 ft. Went to Arizona the day after it hit and was in misery for 6 days, came back and went to chiropractor and started getting some relief after taking spinal decompressions everyday for 2 weeks and starting tomorrow 2 to 3 times a week for 6 weeks. Getting old is not all that it is cracked up to be but at least now they can replace some parts! F2F
  4. Down about 50 yds below the root wad ever so often turn and make a few cast to the north bank in the shallows less than a foot deep. Lately I have been catching more on that side letting it drift back into the deeper part. F2F

    I fished last Friday and Saturday nights about 3 hours each night and did fair about 30 all together. Fished down below the root wad and most of the fish came from the north side in the shallows. Started with black pine squirrels caught 2 in the first 3 casts then nothing until I changed to white. Biggest Friday night 1 just short of 19 in. and Saturday 1 just over 17 and 1 just under 17. F2F
  6. Last night the first 2 fish I caught were browns, the first I shook off quickly and thought it was a brown and very next cast caught another one and looked closer and it was a twin of the first. The rest of the night all bows, all came on white bead head hibinators both on the fly rod and the spinning rod with 1/8 oz split shot 1unit running. F2F
  7. The small clear plastic casting corks that you fill with water work fairly well also, or if the water is off and you can wade just use the small clear regular corks. Make sure that your line is 4 lb or less or use a leader of the same. Casting corks have a spindle that runs through cork with a hole for your line to go through, you have to tie a swivel after you run your line through and that acts as a stop also. Tie about 5' to 6' of leader onto the swivel below the cork and then your fly. Pull the spindle to fill about 1/3rd to 1/2 full of water depending on how far you want to cast. F2F
  8. I have fished the Rio Grande many times from its beginning below the dam 30 miles or so west of Creede down past the first 2 campgrounds and caught lots of rainbows and a few browns. I always wanted to float and maybe camp the 20 or so miles that run through the wilderness area where there is little to no access except by floating. F2F
  9. A 5" hellbender in crawdad color in a rock quarry, crappie jumped like a bass a couple times. We used to fish large minnows with a slip cork set about 20 -25 deep and you did not know what you were going to catch bass or crappie. F2F
  10. There's trout in some of the streams around Sedona that I want to fish if OSU makes it back to the Fiesta Bowl. F2F
  11. Watch in 2 or 3 years Haith will be in the running for coach of the year and use that as a springboard to some elite coaching job. TU has always been the stepping stone for so-so coaches to move on to better positions. F2F
  12. I have fished Toledo bend a few times but never caught any of these . LOL F2F
  13. I like C also but it would be nice to have a blank space so you could write in your screen name if you so desired. F2F
