Fishing Report - Memorial Day 5/29

[loo10]

My son Tim and I arrived at Taney at about 7am Monday morn

and motored above Fall Creek into trophy area.

Was already getting warm!

Came across a guy wading up to his armpits in the fog.

He had his arms & head out of the water only.

I thought it was a goose at first.

Thank God I saw him.

Word to the wise if you're reading this....not smart!!!!!

Fished in upper stretches for several hours.

Caught several although it was slower than it'd been in a long time.

Biggest was about 14" inches or so.

Quite a few boats in the trophy area...

most were pounding the bluff.

Found fish on the shallow side...away from the traffic.

Caught some on midges but did best after wind picked up.

Then we switched to mini-jigs that bounced on the waves.

Did well with those.

Kept our limits of 11" inchers for a fish fry.

Phil, took you up on your offer to clean our catch at your fish cleaning station.

Bought ice & sodas & stuff to pay you for the hospitality.

Thanks my friend.
