  2. Fall Creek Marina and There are some docks in between the landing and the water treatment plant. They have a sign advertising boat slip rentals, it's across from Kanakuk. Sorry don't know the number, but it's a part of a development so google maps might help.

  4. Planning on Fishing Friday and Saturday, will join for dinner one night, boat can fish three folks. Of course, I have fly fishing gear for anyone interested
  5. In middle of November 2019, up by the cable eddy, bluff blank, caught Whites, Crappie, Kentucky, and Smallmouth on this trip in the same place, spill gates where open, believe they where all coming over the top and hanging around the eddy. All caught stripping a streamer with a fly rod, caught trout too, incredibly fun, never new what you where going to get next.
  6. I use Feather Craft quite a bit before, never checked out Bob Marriott's online shop, will give it a shot. Thanks!
  7. On the Fly Shop talk, It looked like Dally's in Cotter was closed when I drove by last Friday, and someone also said they where having troubles?
  8. What shop in Springfield?
  9. Yes December 31st is the last day, this is one reason we put together the Fly Tying school, used to be held at K and K.
  10. Thanks, also just found out Doug is an accomplished salmon fly tyer, but I don't think he bought any of that exotic stuff the "Feather Thief" guy stole
  11. If you interested in learning how to ty flies, We are having a Fly Tying school, in KC area, checkout the flyer for details. Couple of very experienced instructors will be leading the class.
  12. Great meeting you guys, sorry I could not stay longer, going to make it next year, good dudes ,place and location is awesome. Also shout out to DJ for putting a Jig rod in my hand, very effective way to cover water and catch fish.
  13. Will be down tomorrow (Friday) shooting for between 8:00 and 8:30, will have my boat with two streamer rods and two nypmhing rods if a couple of folks want to fly fish.
  14. Give it a shot now, I think I had it marked private... Let me know if you can't see it. Sorry about that
  15. @Phil Lilley turned me on to this pattern. I fish it a lot in all conditions year round. Rolan Duffield designed this fly and according to a video Phil made, material was from his dog, I use Awesome Possum. It's an interestingly simple pattern. In my experience it performs better, or at least as well, as a more realistically tied scud patterns. Rolan indicates that the longer fibers "breath" in the water. It's a very quick ty, Phil pointed out to me that trimming can be eliminated if the dubbing to about 1/2", making it an even quicker ty.
  16. Looks good, might pick it up too. thanks!
  17. Yes, I'm still planning on fishing Friday will be down early. Would love to stay, but have to get back Friday night, will plan better next trip. Looking forward to meeting OA folks.
  18. Reading all these posts made me remember a tip. If your fishing in a boat in really cold weather, make sure you wipe down your trolling motor when you stow it for another drift, because after you make your move it will be frozen stuck. You'll have to kick it loose or pee on it .
  19. Low 20's actual temperature for me, had the place to myself, guide ice was a pain, but fish were eating.

    Tiger Tail

    Playing around with editing software and put together a tying video. I love this pattern, fish it with sink tip in low to moderate generation. Anybody else throw this?
  22. I'll be down Friday a.m and will fish and stay for dinner, but will head back to my place in Branson after dinner, should be able to be back for Saturday too. I can take two folks fishing in my Towee, if anyone wants to fly fish and does not have gear, let me know I have plenty. I'll bring a desert for Friday night dinner.
  23. Glad for your recovery. Nice job on the PT. Thanks for sharing
  24. Thanks, you can post pics, I'll just not look, but will read the next chapter Thanks!
  25. I looked quickly, then scrolled to read without seeing the picture, bad idea, the quick images with your rapid fire description made me a bit nauseous Did not look at the picture again, scrolled it out to the like button, then replied.
