OzarkFishman Posted August 11, 2010 Posted August 11, 2010 I was on the water for about an hour and half today. I picked up three quick dink smallmouths. Then, I moved up river a little to a pretty good pool with a tree creating a nice pocket of shaded, slack water. On my third cast I hooked up with a good fish. It took me into some trees, made a couple good jumps and then I landed it. It was a nice fight for my 5'6" light action rod. I picked up a total of 11 fish, with all but 2 being smallmouth. A couple smallmouth would have went 12". OzarkFishman
OzarksRiverman Posted August 11, 2010 Posted August 11, 2010 Nice fish. I waded the upper finley last saturday (above John's Ford) and caught a bunch of fish. I caught a LM about that size, didn't have a camera but I marked my pole and it was 18".
Wayne SW/MO Posted August 11, 2010 Posted August 11, 2010 Nice! Today's release is tomorrows gift to another fisherman.
OzarkFishman Posted August 12, 2010 Author Posted August 12, 2010 I still have yet to fish upper Finley. I have heard a lot of good things. I plan on going back tomorrow morning, hopefully I get some more good action. Good luck on the water, OzarkFishman
smallmouthjoe Posted August 17, 2010 Posted August 17, 2010 Nice, I'm starting to like that section of the river. I thought I was the only one who fished it that far down. Nice Fish.
