Anyone Fly Fishing At All?

[vanven]

With the water up, is fly fishing a viable option at all? I cant seem to visualize exactly how high the water gets at 7000-10000 cfs. Is that above the first step at outlet 2 or higher? Is the bank between outlet 2 and outlet 3 accessible? I have a couple days to burn later this week and I am not really interested in wearing out a spot at the outlets. If I can access a little bit of water it makes the choice between Taney and the water below Roaring River a much tougher decision.

For the last two months the water has been 708 to 710, non stop. That is the first step and higher.

While my latest fishing report was while fishing from my boat,

I can offer the following:

a.) Many were fly-fishing from boats and seemed to be doing very well.

b.) Outlet 1 was a circus. Maybe 12 or more beating that small area to a froth.

Looked awful to me.

c.) Outlet 2 had only one or two anglers on it most of the times I went past it.

Sounds unfishable to me then. Bah!

Jerod..

loo10 is right..

during the day outlet is worst the a circus.... But on the outter banks (between the outflow of 1 on uo toward the cable... is a hot spot...

GOT TO GET IT DEEP... we are still catch a few smallies. still some walleyes.... and every now and then a Largemouth and now the kentuckies are starting to fire up... AND THEY ARE FAT!!!

Also timing seems to be a big roll. Early evening and into the night seem to be the key time for the bass and eyes...
