Ditto @Flysmallie, I've had luck with chartreuse, and yellow clousers.

Great Book, John Krakauer was on a morning program this AM and said, he thought all his Everest Guide buddies where going to hate him when he published the book, thinking business would drop because of the danger. He said, "I was wrong", they thanked him, business boomed. There is also an updated version of the book out. He also wrote "Into the Wild" good book too.

Their neck's must be super elastic, saw one eat a decent size white bass, and it looked like a cartoon as the fish passed down to it's stomach. They have a wide profile.

Great pics! I'm sure you named it?

Saw this Tuesday, below the tennis courts in the trophy section, made a short video. Amazed it could swallow, such a big trout. It killed it first, before swallowing it. Lot's of Heron's on Taney, wondering what kind of impact they have on trout population?

Had a trip today, midge bite was a little slow in the a.m. noticed some eats along the bluff bank below lookout. Tied on a couple hoppers, nothing huge, mid to upper teens all bows, but had a consistent bite, worked just above tennis courts to narrows. 9 eats, 4 to the boat.

Sorry you had to go through this, but thanks for the heads up. Glad you are on the mend.

I Fish Clinton (Lawrence, KS) quite a bit, great Wiper and White bass fishing most of the year. I pretty much fly fish using electronics and full sinking line and usually find them in open water. However, did some recon yesterday, it was blowing upper 20's so, had to fish a cove. Water temp was 52 and saws tons of bait. Scoped a wolf pack of wipers just cruising around my boat, they where moving fast attacking bait for about an hour seemed like they just stayed around my boat about 20'ft out and they were shallow 2.5 to 7 feet. Hot time was from 6-7pm, but left them biting. Fly rod with a tandem rig and floating line worked great. Made a video of it, and did a little guitar ditty, the dog bark is my Portuguese Water dog Murphy.

So Sorry Phil, hope you have some peace knowing you gave him a great life!

Very cool fish!

Having another Fly Fishing School up here in KC. It's Free, but seats are limited. Here's a promo video.

Just watched too, Goalie was incredible! Great game

Nice leeches! My wife went to the sewing school once in downtown Chicago and I had time, found a guide (Big River Fly Fishing) , He lives in downtown Chicago and his brother has a place on the Kankakee river, and lets him store his drift boat. .It's about an hour outside the city beautiful Smallmouth fishery and an he is an excellent guide. It's fun to think that he leaves a concrete jungle for an office in a beautiful river.

@Phil Lilley. Looks like you are using invision coummity forum software looks like from the admin console you can see user locations and IP addresses this should give you insight on wether they are real or bots

I'm more of a bit twiddler, server/infrastructure a little out of my purview., but will take a shot. @Phil Lilley Usually the logs you are looking at will have IP address information and how many requests are being made from the user. A real person can only click around so fast, also, and they will all have unique ip addresses. If you can access any server logs, even the admin console reports you are looking at, take a screen shot or feel free to send over and I can try to interpret. Also, what is the name of the forum software you are using and how/where are you hosting?
