Root Admin Phil Lilley Posted May 7, 2010 Root Admin Posted May 7, 2010 Duane- How did you do? They had the water off until mid afternoon yesterday and scheduled again for today. This may be a new generation pattern that may stay with us for a while. If anyone gets out in the am and wades below the dam, a report would be appreciated.

Root Admin Phil Lilley Posted May 7, 2010 Root Admin Posted May 7, 2010 He should be leaving shortly. I guess he's trying to get in to his "fishing shape". BTW, Duane, Jim and Phyliss were through Tuesday and Wednesday. They're on their way to Seattle as I type with a 12 passenger van pulling a 25 ft boat/cruiser inboard for taking over the lake. They bought a nice raft from Babler and picked up a 115 head Yamaha in Spokane. Talk about loaded down!! I hope they make it without a lot of problems.
duckydoty Posted May 7, 2010 Author Posted May 7, 2010 Got to the water at 2:30 a.m. and had 44 fish to hand by day break. Many were so large, I could not get my hand around thier body to take them off the hook. Fishing was spectacular! MC and I leave for Fayetteville Ar. on the 20th then fly out of XNA the morning of the 21st to Anchorage. A Little Rain Won't Hurt Them Fish.....They're Already Wet!! Visit my website at..

Root Admin Phil Lilley Posted May 7, 2010 Root Admin Posted May 7, 2010 What on? Where'd you fish? I need to get down and fish with you and take some good pics.
duckydoty Posted May 8, 2010 Author Posted May 8, 2010 I fished from below the Rebar Hole (The Fallen Tree) to the point of The Big Hole, mainly "The Gauntlet" using a size 10 coneheaded white mink sculpin on a floating line. Most bites came from just casting straight across the current and dead drifting it. Did pick up a few on the strip back in, but most came on the swing. After picking up 37 in that area, I moved up to the flats between outlet one and two. Finished off the night there and left just after day break. The biggest one came right at day break while fast stripping the mink back in. I could see the wake following the fly and just kept stripping faster. The fish finally took it just about the time I was to my leader. I would say it was 21 to 22 inches and just huge fat. Just let me know when you want to get out there. I hope they keep this up as a generation pattern. A Little Rain Won't Hurt Them Fish.....They're Already Wet!! Visit my website at.. Ozark Trout Runners
