Sunday Fishing

[DaddyO]

I'm gonna play Hookie from church Sunday and do some fly fishing. It's been a couple of months and I need a fix, bad. They're running 1 generator on Saturday and nothing on Sunday until 5pm or 6pm. Rain or shine, I'm going. I was planning on going Friday morning but they were running 2 generators and the missus made me hang Christmas lights instead.

Maybe I'll see a few of you fellers down there. I'll be in the blue ford sportrac.

OTF6,

I didn't see your post until I got back. Sorry that I missed you.

I wound up fishing the trees on the other side of the island up by the Dam the first part of the day. Brought 30 fish to hand and LDR another 7 or 8. Then I drove over to the T&M Gravel Pits and fished the Car Hole for the first time. I only brought 7 to hand and LDR 3. The weather was kinda funky and the temp dropped about 10 degrees in 10 minutes. I didn't catch any more fish after that, so, I decided to call it a day.

It felt good to knock the rust off of my cast. I hope you other guys were able to get out also.

Sounds like an awesome day! What flies where you using? I thought about going Saturday, but of course they were generating. Thanks for the report.

John,

Check my other posts for pictures and patterns. I was using the BobWhite and the Hair-and-Copper drifted about 2 feet under a strike indicator.

Thanks. I have noticed that your Bobwhite is your best fly for producing. I will have to start tying so I can have some.

Thanks.

I was there sunday. I think I was fishing across from you. I was using a brown wooly. Did you ask me what I was using. I too, am from Owasso.

I was fishing the trees on the other side of the island at the first turn off of the Powersite road. Was wearing my fishing vest over my green rain jacket. I don't remember talking to anybody about a brown wooly bugger.

What part of Owasso do you live in? I live in the Barington Point subdivision just north of the High School.

Good point about the weather Daddy-O, after a certain point, they just quit hitting. I was most productive off an olive mayfly nymph and caught one or two more off a chartreuse jig I tied. I think I landed 10-15 fish between the first powersite pull off and up by the dam. I had twice as many hits and had two break my fly off (cold hands make it difficult to tie a good knot ). After it started raining steadily and my gloves had gotten nice and soaked, I called it a day. I timed it just right, the horn went off as I was headed to the truck! I plan on trying to make it down before Christmas, but who knows. Busy month!
