T-RockJaws Posted July 1, 2010 Posted July 1, 2010 Fished for about 4 to 5 hours out of Eagle Rock last night. Put in and headed to the Roaring River Arm. We had a few shorts in the River before dark on a PB&J jig with watermelon candy trailers and/or salt craws in the green colors. Picked up 2 keepers right at dark on a 10 inch black/blue worm. All of these fish came off secondary points. After dark, the bight seemed to pretty much stop. Came out of the River and decided to fish one or two last banks. We had just decided one last cast and call it good. About that time I had a bite and my partner picked up 2 fish with one being a solid keeper. Needless to say, we continued to fish that bank a little longer. A few casts later I said: Okay, going to catch me an 8 pounder then we will go home. That is when I caught this last fish of the evening, not quite 8 pounds but just shy of 6.

Trout Commander Posted July 1, 2010 Posted July 1, 2010 Nice fish! I have spent most of my money on fly fishing and beer. The rest I just wasted. The latest Trout Commander blog post: Niangua River Six Pack
