Fun On The Eleven Point

[Terry Beeson]

I was invited by Brian Sloss to come down to the Eleven Point yesterday for a TU benefit float and BBQ. Didn't make it down in time to float with the guys, but did manage to get in some fishing.

Started at Greer, but didn't do any good. Spent an hour there below the bridge and down by the boat ramp.

Moved upstream to Cane Bluff and got into some Long Ear Sunfish. These fish were about three feet off the bank and put up a good fight! I must have caught 30 - 40 of them in about 2 1/2 hours on a zebra midge. They were very pretty fish and were a BLAST to catch! I only wish I had brought my 2 wt or switched to my 3wt.

Afterwards, I made my way down to Eleven Point Canoe Rental where Ryan was busy smokin' ribs and venison. About the same time, Brian and about a dozen or so guys that floated that day rolled in. They had not slayed them, but did report catching trout on their float.

Good BBQ with some good folks after a good day on the river... It don't get no better'n that!!!!!

Sounds like it was a great time, you couldn't ask for better scenery and weather. I wanted to go, but got tied down to something else and forgot all about it. Maybe next year.

Thanks for coming down, it was great to have you here. The fish were a little spooky with the low, clear water, but everyone caught fish and I think a good time was had by all. The bonus, Mizzou beat the Sooners!
