Gavin Posted January 4, 2010 Posted January 4, 2010 Had a blast on the Current this weekend.Put in at Tan Vat at Dawn on New Years Day. Caught a bunch of fish, including a 24" brown on my way down past Ashley. Tons of wildlife too...deer, turkey, bald eagles.... Guess it was around 1pm when the rest of the bunch caught up with me. They reported good fishing on Thursday & Friday AM, but nothing huge. I slept late & didnt fish Saturday, but those who did had good fishing..My friend Kip caught a really nice one..Bigger than mine, 25" or so on Saturday AM judging from his picture, and my friend Barry lost a really nice fish due to a reel malfunction on Saturday PM. Sunday AM was really slow...Barry and I went out before breakfast...Barry drew a blank, I ended up with a 16" brown & a bonus smallmouth. Bit of snow falling, and we had a great float out. Fun weekend! WFT 2010 was a good one!
KCRIVERRAT Posted January 4, 2010 Posted January 4, 2010 Absolutely awesome pics! Great to see some river trip shots this time of year and those are some beautiful fish. Where did you guys camp at and where was your take out? I miss those days of winter floating... KC HUMAN RELATIONS MANAGER @ OZARK FISHING EXPEDITIONS
laker67 Posted January 5, 2010 Posted January 5, 2010 You guys are hard core now. I can take the cold day fishing, but not the overnight camp out. That is a great river brown. I can see that you all had a great trip. Thanks for the pictures.

Gavin Posted January 5, 2010 Author Posted January 5, 2010 Glad you enjoyed the pics...Camp was on the woods..2nd hole below Ashley Creek..Chimney Rock hole...you can see the Chimney Rock on the right side of the across the river camp shot. Should have lit the tents up, paddled across, and taken that one at night. Put in at Tan Vat, took out at out at Parker on Sunday.. Cheers.
joeD Posted January 6, 2010 Posted January 6, 2010 As Montgomery Burns would say: "Exxccellent." Thanks for sharing Gavin. If you don't mind, what was the modus operandi for catching fish: flies or hardware?
