Guys, I haven't been on the Rock for about a week, due to a heavy schedule on taney, but here is what I have. Please let us know if you have something that we don't.

Tim Paige reports the dam area meaning Point 7 to Long Creek. Fish suspended in tree tops and long gravel points in 28 to 32 ft. suspended over 60 to 70 ft. He is averaging about 14 fish per 4 hr. trip, with a really good one being in the 20 fish catigory. Tim has worked the dam area by far more than any other guide this year. He has a good handle on whats going on. I have missed him on taney, but it is great to be that versitile.

Bill Beck reports fishing in the Kimberling and lower James and up the White to Baxter being not so much today. Fish in that same 28 ft range on the bottom and suspended. in the trees and off flat gravel.

Last week Bill won the Heartland Elite, and the Buddy and came in second in the Pro Am. Man what an accomplishment. Great fisherman and a way better person. Bill is one of the true gentleman in the sport and if you every get a chance to fish with him the money could be no better spent.

Buster reports the Kimberling City area yesterday was just fantastic with lots of topwater action and then fish suspended in that same 28 ft range.

It is simply being in the right spot at the right time. If you see those fish chasing in the early AM, they most probably will be down or suspended in a very near location.

Both Buster and I have just been all over the entire White River drainage. From taney to Eagle rock it seems we are the jacks of all trades and the masters of but a few. Still when you work everyday for the most part you can get a feeling for whats going on.

Buster is still one of the top bets for the rock and can make those trout jump most of the time. Good luck and let us knows whats up.
