Anyone Fished The Tan Vat Area Lately?

[Scudz Rule]

To come on on your first post, and for lack of a better way to put it, go on a snobbish, totally incoherent rampage, could be nothing else.

If you don't have anything worth saying to say, then you don't have to type anything.

TO ME IT WAS WORTH SAYING. DUH, AND IMPORTANT ENOUGH FOR ME TO POST. INCOHERENT RAMPAGE? KINDA PERSONAL THERE OZARK TROUT GUY? PRACTICE WHAT YOU PREACH.

You are a troll. Plain and simple.

I have been on this forum for over a year, trying to provide what little information to folks that I know, and on this thread I was honestly trying to be helpful. Of course I had to slip the joke about the Panther Martin in the end, because I do usually spin fish, but you will notice in the rest of the post, I gave advice on fly fishing.......... The Current is not your secret little gem. Face it. Every trout fisherman in the state knows about it, and probably fishes it.

To come on on your first post and go berzerk isn't cool. That's all I'm saying.

And this, my friend, is exactly what you would expect a troll to say. You were just trying to get people worked up, and I guess you succeeded. Congratulations.

Wow, welcome to the forum Scuds.. As a lifelong spincaster, your first post hurt my feelings a little bit. But then I got over it, hope we can still share a stream once in a while...

Now who is this potter fellow? I am interested in hiring him for next weekend or the weekend after that.. (gotta restock on powerbait first, lol)

Yeah... If your looking to fish dries, tiny tricos in the morning will be your best bet. Their really tiny, and the few times I've tried to fish that hatch I've had a difficult time. I just don't do well fishing dries that small. But if your into that kinda thing, you can take a few on top that way.

Woolly buggers and similar streamers always take more fish for me down there, when I'm fly fishing.

Of course a good old Panther Martin Spinner will outfish any of these.

thank you for the advice, as a spincaster who is trying to learn flyfishing, this advice is perfect.. Even gves me a suggestion for my spincast backup (when I fail miserably at my flycasting).

Thanks again to yourself and anyone else who takes the time to answer questions from folks who are here to learn about a particular fishery (how to fish it, preserve it, and cherish it).. You could easily chose to horde your secret "gems", but you realize there is a greater good in sharing your experiences with others. Some take forever to learn this.

Dunno...I've been at this fly fishing game for 31 years know...Went through my snob phase, and got over it years ago. These days I dont concern myself with what other folks are doing legally on the river. I just hope they are having fun too.

Started fishing with spin tackle again 6-7years ago...and enjoy it alot. Sometimes spin tackle is the way to go...Other times, fly tackle is. Its a pointless debate anyway. Best bet is to head to the river with an open mind and listen to what the fish are telling you. Welcome to the site. Cheers.

I definately "prefer" flyfishing for Trout, and consider myself "better than average", but I've had my butt kicked by spin fishing buddies, Plenty. Especially in the size department, and/or when Browns are in the mix.

I may have been outfished by a flyfisherman once or twice........................................................................

Okay, maybe every single time I go fishing. :lol:
