One Last Winter Season Trip

I'm hoping for one last winter trout park trip after the rain last weekend messed things up. I'm going to head to Montauk, at least if the roads are clear enough by Sunday morning, after the snow that's supposed to come on Friday.. What's the fishing been like down there lately? Are they still going after the usuals (scuds, marabous, glo-bugs, etc)?

I was up 2 weeks ago and posted a report. Crowds were light and fish were taking the usual suspects. It warmed up that day and they started looking up some. River was in good shape before the rains, should be back down now.

I will be in the area if the roads are good enough, it looks like most will go south. I will fish a while Sunday.

Well the roads are good enough to head down, so I'm gonna give it a try.

When we left out yesterday morning, they were still running off into the median north of Jackson on I-55. Main roads were still snowy, side roads not even bladed. We changed direction and ended up in St. James/Rolla area for the night. Stopped in at Meramec Springs today and the spring was pumping mud. Maybe a dozen vehicles in the lots and few fishing. I did not even attempt to unholster a rod.

Great days for Antique shopping and sightseeing.
