Brian Sloss Posted April 4, 2006 Share Posted April 4, 2006 I got to fish at the 160 bridge for 30 minutes before the canoes I was waiting for arrived early. Caught 6 trout on a MOAT with a birds nest dropper, most on the swing. they were all small except the first one, which was a fat, hard fighting 15 incher. It jumped big time 3 times and was a load of fun. Will have a more detailed report by Thursday. www.elevenpointflyfishing.com www.elevenpointcottages.com (417)270-2497 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Sloss Posted April 4, 2006 Author Share Posted April 4, 2006 To be more specific, it was a poxy back sparrow nymph. Pcific Fly Group sells them if you have a catalog. Looks like a big black hare's ear with an epoxy back. The tail is tan. It has long soft hackles and I think a little marabou above the hackle at the head of the fly. It looks like a meal, but nothing in particular, which is often the ticket on this river. I know that is a lousy description, but I can't take a pic that shows it with any clarity. www.elevenpointflyfishing.com www.elevenpointcottages.com (417)270-2497 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
