Jfg Fishing Report 3/22/10

[Zack Hoyt]

Low water and warm temps have made fishing below Bull Shoals Lake very fruitful. Large numbers of very healthy looking fish are being reported. Mornings and late afternoons are producing some great caddis hatches. Anything from a sz16 to a sz 12 have been observed. This means lots of dry fly action. Most we saw have either a black or dark grey body. Also this means soft hackles are a good bet for subsurface fishing. Pheasant Tail Nymphs, Hares Ears, and Copper johns under an indicator are getting fish. Observe how the fish are acting and set your depth accordingly. Lots of big browns schooling around, so dont be afraid to toss some of the big streamers.
