John Berry Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 When I got up this morning, I called the dam and noted that there was no generation. After running a few errands and eating lunch, I loaded up my yellow lab Ellie and headed to Rim Shoals. When I got there one guy was leaving and I had the whole place to myself. I started off fishing a brown zebra midge with copper wire and copper bead. I fished it for a while and caught several fish. When I broke of on a good brown, I switched to a size sixteen olive scud and things really picked up. I absolutely slammed them. Near the end of the day I tried a worm brown San Juan worm and caught my big fish, a pair of eighteen inch rainbows. I finished the day with over thirty trout and a wide grin.

Greg Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 I guess they were not running water today John? Sounds like a great day. Greg "My biggest worry is that my wife (when I'm dead) will sell my fishing gear for what I said I paid for it" - Koos Brandt Greg Mitchell
John Berry Posted February 28, 2008 Author Posted February 28, 2008 Yes, I was surprised. I quickly rearranged my day to take advantage of it. John Berry OAF CONTRIBUTOR Fly Fishing For Trout (870)435-2169 http://www.berrybrothersguides.com berrybrothers@infodash.com
