Stop at Tim's Fly Shop north entrance to RRSP on hwy 112. Tim can tell you exactly what you need.

Waters should be fine. The rain just barely showed a jump on the river gauge this week. They're dredging Zone 2 during the week causing chocolate milk downstream. Even that just messed up sight fishing only. The bite has been fine. You'll be fine
-
Gavin's right. Five to six pounds and yes, a lunker
-
Good advice Dave. Stop by Tim's Fly Shop, and he can fill you in on the latest lures and colors.

Stop by Tim's Fly Shop for up to date info. I'd suggest the State access just east of the park on hwy F. The last flood took out most of the access roads so the MDC access best bet. Park in lot and walk down to River.

Is Roaring River park open?
Steve Smith replied to strangercreek's topic in Roaring River State Park
I last fished Monday in RRSP. It was more like I got blown away Monday with steady winds all day. Roaring River is alive and doing well. -
I've had my best luck after the sun warms the water surface a little and you see a hatch swarming. Cracklebacks in blue dun hackle works for me but other friends have done better with whites and cream colored parachute pattern

Saw you guys and was wondering what fly you used. I too caught some nice fish on a green hopper. Curious what fly a "Frenchie" is?
-
Trout are sluggish from the heat too but did well on green hoppers and beetles in the morning. About size 10 concentrated in shady spots.
-
They are stocking some nice fish this year. Of course wiTh the high water they might be in the lake by now
-
Most flies that work for Taneycomo also will work for RRSP. Try Tim's fly shop too for the latest

You should be alright as long as you are not dumping beer cans, trash, or tearing up the place. ATV, keg parties, and trash dumping generally spoil access for all of us. If posted, definitely ask first. If I'm thinking of the right place, it is gated and padlocked now anyway.

Ronnie is right on - second Friday in November is the opener. Second Friday in November is Nov 8th

First, try to keep the small ones to eat. Soak in milk to draw out the blood
-
Stop by Tim's Fly Shop. He'll let you know how to catch the fish.

Thank you sir. I will report back, but I believe this will work

Exactly Wayne - a trailer adds a variable of weight, and trucks don't give much security for our stuff left behind. Often, we're not able to secure things out of sight, and there is no sense tempting an issue if we can avoid it. A private, safe parking area would be much preferred. I think if there is a resort or canoe place of business we'll use that
-
I went under the bridge last week - looks like some rain could make that really bad. Also, a bit concerned about security. Thanks Trophy - that may be my only choice until water comes up in other rivers
-
I'll check out the rental place - thanks Wayne

Hwy 86 Bridge - Kings River Access We’re thinking the white bass should be running in Kings before long. I’d rather fish Roaring River, but no water right now. We are looking for a spot on Kings on or near the Hwy 86 bridge where we can pay to launch some kayaks and park. If you know of a place comment here – appreciate the help. Two – three guys and will leave everything as clean or cleaner than when we arrived

Phil; I had to login, but seems to remember me

There will be sections downstream of Powell where the Big Sugar will disappear too because the water table is so low. It will then reappear in a few hundred yards, but even then there won't be much flow.

I fished the Muncie Cemetery area for years and I don’t think you would have any issues as long as you weren’t trashing the place up. Folks go in there and dump trash and or leave their beer cans scattered around. It was a popular place to have beer and pot parties, so they put up signs. It’s not just kids either that cause the problems.

And a Merry Christmas to everyone and theirs Dano and a Happy New Year
