Micheal Kyle Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 Decided to go down last night any way after hearing bad reports of nothing being caught, the way I look at it how do I know it is true with out going and checking for my self. We did not get down there until 8:30 way after the dusk bite but I talked to several people who said it was slow. I had the old Clacka Craft Drift boat with me and I am sure glad we did, if I would of had a regular boat I'm not sure where I would have put it in the water. I found a nice flat spot up by Devils Tea table and we unloaded the boat up and over a down tree. I really was starting to decide that this might not be worth it but after about a 30 minute battle to get the boat in the water I was sure glad we did. That is nice thing with these boats you can virtually put them in any where. We then motored up about 1 mile then started to drift down not seeing much action. The water was still high and a little stained as we got closer to where we had put the boat in whites were exploding all over the top of the water we then set anchor and proceeded to fish. I fished a Rio 150gr sink tip with a floating fly that is chartreuse and white the reason I was doing this because I felt that the fish wanted something that was suspended in the water column it payed off. I Had tried a floating line and had also tried flies on the bottom be for going to this suspended style of fishing. Had the best luck with this method, although it is more of a lake style of fishing. If you can find them you will catch them just have to be mobile they are scattered all over the place. The water temp was 48 when we started to fish, hopefully this warm week will warm the water back up and they will turn back on. Lots of males last night here is a pic of a nice female that I caught right off the start with a #6 clouser that is black and purple. Michael To Know People Is To Know Thier Ways!
