Lots of things happening in the dam area..

Friday afternoon/night

started out fishing hoppers and beetles picking up a few.

fished with a pine squirrel for a little bit an landed a few more.

as darkness and fog filled the air we started fishing the PMS.. MAN what a show...

we are already see some really nice fish, when this water drops be prepared!!!

Already some 8-15lb fish swimming around.. This is going to be one HECK of a fall.

Fishing was still AWESOME... really nice fish caught *****(AND NOT JUST IN THE OUTLETS!!)*****

Once you figure out where your cast is going to and the distance you can get.. fishing streamer and woolies has been great

hoppers are still doing good

FREAKING midges everywhere

The TNS (over sized crackleback a #8) was wacking the fish .. as the sun got higher we switched over to a softhackle again catching a small number of fishing

Sunday night fishing was great!!

I needed to experiment a few new flies and as I was rigging up. Kenny (I hope thats right) came over and aske a few question about night fishing.

I told him if he had a few more minutes to spare Id be glad to show him around and toss a few bugs..

he started with a pine squirrel and ended with a pine squirrel.. LOL... even though we only caught a couple fish.. He said he had a blast catching trout on a fly rod by the light of the full moon...

Great report Leonard. Any feel for a Ballpark figure when the water will start slowing down.I'm chompin at the bit to get some fly fishing under my gut. A crappie trip to Truman didn't quell the water flogger in me. Thanks

Leonard looks like I missed you again... me and a couple of the boys came down after work on sunday, and fished by outlet 2 from about 6:30 to midnight, we did okay, picking up a few every once in awhile on the scuds. Meant to bring the box of dries, but left it at home.
