DaddyO Posted March 4, 2010 Posted March 4, 2010 I've been watching the lake levels and generation schedule and I am very optimistic that the COE will cooperate and give us periods of No Generation this weekend. It also looks like we have a warming trend and possible a little chop on the water. If I can get the rest of the stars in my life to align, I'm going fishing on Saturday. I suspect a lot of other people are thinking the same thing. Which means it will probably be busy. Oh well, maybe I'll run into a few of you guys down there. I'll be driving the blue Ford Sportrac. Tight Lines! DaddyO We all make decisions; but, in the end, our decisions make us.

Tight Lines! Hey I'll be going out! I don't have my flyrod in Oklahoma yet (still in a box somewhere in West Virginia or on its way here), but I'll be going out this weekend too. Black Honda Ridgeline Truck. Hope to see ya.
OKFlyFisher44 Posted March 5, 2010 Posted March 5, 2010 I'm going to try and go on Sunday. Got a couple of fly fishing rookies that I'm going to take out and play "guide" for the day... Chance ...I'm haunted in my dreams of waters I have yet to fish and trout I have yet to catch... Chasing the Dream...
The Caddis Posted March 5, 2010 Posted March 5, 2010 Schedule shows no generation today after 11-12. I may try and hit the water this afternoon if i can swing it.
Members ColeM. Posted March 5, 2010 Members Posted March 5, 2010 Low water!!!!!!! Of course on the weekend of my daughters birthday, with all of my family coming in!
Hopper Posted March 6, 2010 Posted March 6, 2010 Looks like sunday for me, Chance where are you going to be? Gregg The gods do not deduct from man's allotted span the hours spent in fishing.
OKFlyFisher44 Posted March 6, 2010 Posted March 6, 2010 If I do end up going on Sunday, I'll probably start at the Watts area. They show to start generating at 3:00 on Sunday so I'd bet I'll end up staying at Watts all morning/afternoon. Just kind of depends how the fishing goes with the newbies. Might sneak up by the dam if things are slow at Watts, they want to keep some trout anyways to eat. I'll know tomorrow evening if I'm going or not, I'll post it up on here if I do go. We'll be in my silver GMC crew-cab Z71 w/ the Ducks Unlimited and Scott fly rod decals in the back glass...

DaddyO Posted March 7, 2010 Author Posted March 7, 2010 Well, The stars aligned perfectly for me this weekend. I was able to get out and fish all day on Saturday. I caught 20 fish the first hour I was there, all on the Hair and Copper #14. I moved down river behind the island and picked up another 15 and LD released another 10 or so and broke off about half again over a 2 and a half hour time period. I decided to take a break and go get some lunch. My Dad and Brother hooked up with me after lunch and we decided to go back and fish the big water above the island. There was lots of activity up there and I wound up picking up another 30 or 40 fish or more. Most of the fish were caught on the Hair and Copper #14, however, a #16 Black and Copper Zebra midge caught it's share of fish also. Here is the 20th fish of the day that I caught. She was a fatty. DaddyO We all make decisions; but, in the end, our decisions make us.
