Cadillacricket You Doing Any Good?

[oneshot]

Been fishing last two days on the river and I've only caught two Suckers at Lead Mine and seen one caught today.Went to Barclay today didn't see any caught.One Guy said he was going on up towards NRO said he heard Goggle Eye were biting on Jigs up there.

But I had the same luck over at Pomme De Terre.Caught a White Bass and two Drum there.

I'm thinking its just the calm before everything cuts lose.

I had a pretty good afternoon on the river yesterday (Fri.), Caught 6 Rainbows, one was a real pig, and missed a lot of bites. I was swinging Muddlers on a sink-tip. I'd give it a twich about mid-swing and they'd hammer it. No locational pattern really, I got bit in the riffles, tailouts and pools. It seemed like the fish were scattered everywhere.

Saw a pair of guys doing pretty good throwing spinners and spoons also.

fishinwrench was you up by Bennett? I haven't been up there for awhile.Figure if I don't catch them closer to home I just don't catch them.

Sorry I missed you question yesterday.. I have been intent on making a blog out of my fishing reports, but the system here won't allow me to make a blog.. Still working on it...

Anyway, the fishing for the last couple days has been spotty. Last time I was out (I am headed out again this morning) was on Wednesday, and the river was up and muddy as all get out. I hooked one on a trout spoon (kastmaster) and one on a Jig, then nothing for a few hours. I switched to a marshmallow bait and a really long leader and hit four in a row.

My guess is that the river is still a little muddy, but looking much better today. I will report back in a few hours from "Zone 4" and let you know how it went...

PS, I have been restricting myself to the area just below the park, so I have been posting reports, just not in the Niangua side. The fishing on the niangua is drastically different from the fishing there in "Zone 4" so I tend to seperate em out that way, and I haven't floated the river down to barclay in about a month..

Well the river was starting to look better yesterday then all this rain is sure to bring it back up.But maybe I'll get me a Turkey in the morning and find some Mushrooms give it time to settle down again.

The river rose a foot while I was there this morning! I still managed to hook a few, but I had to work my tail off at it. My partner did much better using white powerbait, and I ended up hooking mine with a white maribou jig, but we only stuck around long enough to get soaked... Now the river is up and rising and muddy as all get out. I will be going down wednesday again, I will report back then..

Thanks, glad to hear the report.. This recent rain got your water flowing, or what?
