Don't forget scuds... Pink flesh usually tastes better (no pun intended), imo.

hahaha! I didn't land anything on the mice either. I was at NRO (no comment needed... it was ridiculous). I fished the ripple on both sides just below the launch area. I pulled trout out on almost every swing. 23 fish on Saturday and 15 fish, Sunday morning. It was a pretty good time. A couple of 3ish pounds (my best guess) as well. All buggers... As soon as one color stopped working, I switched colors and the bite was back on. Black, Olive, and tan.

Not sure if you mean, from "drunken rafters," or trout/smallmouth? I guess if the mouse pattern isn't working well, I could always switch to casting cans of beer?
-
I've had great luck with many patterns on the niangua... But, I wanted to see if anyone was tossing any mice patterns this time of year for trout/small mouth on the fly and if you had any success with them? Of course, this time of year... I may have a better chance hooking a drunken rafter...

The little niangua is a great place for fishing, from what I'm told. I'll be hitting that up, this year quite a bit.

I just asked you a question about your fishing status for this Saturday. I guess this answers my question...
-
Hey OneShot, Are you fishing this weekend, by chance? I'm going to do a turn and burn from St Joseph, on Saturday if the river level isn't too high.

I was there on Saturday. Spey rod with tan, brown, olive, and black. Worked from 64 bridge to barclay. Caught rainbows and a brown. Not sharing where on the brown, though. Most people don't release them, so I don't like to share. Let them grow and get bigger!
-
What about for fishing with casting tackle? What colors are working well with plastics? Frogs? Jig-types? shakey-head rigs? etc?
-
Thanks, Danimal! Good to know!

hey all, I'm floating the kings in June from Rockhouse to Trigger Gap. I wanted to know what color, type of flies that need in my bag of tricks for the float!? Also, I'm going to be swinging flies through the trophy area. Thanks, delopez

Hey all, I'm heading down south, next weekend (23rd). I wanted to check the water levels and see what colors people were having luck on? Fly-wise! Also, if anyone wants to join me I'll be swinging flies about a mile north of Hidden Valley Outfitters! It's been a year since I've been down, so it's time that I have a date with the water! Local, dirty waters get tiresome after a while... Thanks, delopez

Could you send me a pic of the 5 weight diomandback?

I've actually heard of the little blue in KC and indian creek both having some smallmouth in them. -

I loved this river. However, my 8 weight is still at the bottom of a run somewhere... I'm ready to float it again. Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk -
Anyone use a jet drift at all? Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 2

Are you referring to the one just slightly upstream from the boat ramp? Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 2
-
I was just at the hidden valley outfitters campground last month. Very, very nice. That being said, I hope it's still in good condition after this flood...
-
I heard that the river was rising? Anyone have a report? Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 2

I was just upstream, at the bend where there rapid is a couple of weeks ago and didn't catch a thing. I was totally disappointed. If one of you want to join me on a brown-trout-hunt in a few weeks, let me know. I'm anxious... I have some size 12 stimulator patterns that I tied that i'm dying to try.
-
I'm just ready to get a brown out of the niangua... I've tried. Always failed. What was your top pattern? Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 2
-
As I pull in with my boat and fishing gear. That wouldn't look obvious at all!
-
No. They're LR. With these cool days, I hope to still catch trout down that way... Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 2

Honestly, I'm not usually after smallie in the Niangua. However, I love smallies so I always welcome them to bite whatever I'm throwing. I'm after a brown and large rainbows. I know they're in there. However, ANY fish that I get on the other end of my line is worth the trip to the Niangua river, to me!
