Hopper Posted January 30, 2010 Posted January 30, 2010 I figured I would escape Tulsas' weather and head south to Lower Mt. Fork for the weekend, arrived around 12:00 and on the water about 12:30. Steady rain most of the afternoon and around 38 deg. water was a little off color so it seemed anything i tied on worked. Small flor. orange san juan worm, with an assortment of midge droppers, 60% on midges 40% on worm. landed around 30 fish by 4:30 one nice 16" rainbow. Will add another report tommorrow.

OKFlyFisher44 Posted January 30, 2010 Posted January 30, 2010 You have escaped it alright...we've got about 5 or 6 inches of snow already. Roads are ridiculous right now. I'm hoping the road crews get the turnpikes cleared off by sunday...if so, I'm going to Gore. Chance ...I'm haunted in my dreams of waters I have yet to fish and trout I have yet to catch... Chasing the Dream...
Hopper Posted January 31, 2010 Author Posted January 31, 2010 Just got back in town and from the looks of it I'm glad I went south. Saturday and today the fishing was outstanding. Sat. the very good, but also had some tough luck, I don't know what it was but I must have broke off 8 times from fish and another 10 on the bottom, 20+ flies in one day, one fish actually made may heart race, it jumped twice so I got a good look at it, would hace been the largest trout I ever landed (24+") lesson learned, dont reach for your net untill that fish is played out Anyway I made up for it today, fished from 8:00 to 1:00 caught more fish than I could count, two right at 18" couple more at 16". Great weekend! Gregg The gods do not deduct from man's allotted span the hours spent in fishing.
