oneshot Posted April 4, 2011 Posted April 4, 2011 The river is looking Good seems everyone is catching Rainbows below the Park,from what I seen Power Bait color didn't matter but White and Orange seemed dominate.Seen some using Spinners just didn't see what they was using but they were catching too.The fish seemed to have Good size. oneshot
Members DaveMac Posted April 4, 2011 Members Posted April 4, 2011 Thanks for the report. Hey thanks again also for the referral to Adventures. Linda set me up (mentioned your forum name at least) and was very nice.
FishinCricket Posted April 4, 2011 Posted April 4, 2011 It looked on the guage like it was coming down.. Good deal, too.. Just in time for the wifey and I to inaugurate the canoe on Wednesday! Hey, Oneshot: have you ever tried using mini marshmallows? Always works for me and costs a whole lot less than powerbait... Also used to use balled up bread dough but it tends to come off the hook... I'll have the crawdads rigged up, but here's my report (in advance): Went floating and fishing, caught fish.. Released them relatively unharmed.. But totally traumatized.. Took pics, but I'm afraid to post them. cricket.c21.com

Greasy B Posted April 5, 2011 Posted April 5, 2011 Sunday we had about 700 cfs. Big water!! If you’re floating be aware this river is not an amusement park. There is no one looking out for your safety except you. The split channel above NRO is completely blocked on the left by trees; the right channel has a tree that slumped into the water in just the last week or so. My fishing partner and I ran into some folks that got swept into the strainer in the right channel. They were lucky to come out of it with just scrapes and bruises. We helped them dislodge the canoe from a log jam and warned them about the perils around the bend. I advised them to take out at NRO and call it a day; I don’t know if they did. We caught a few fish. His father touches the Claw in spite of Kevin's warnings and breaks two legs just as a thunderstorm tears the house apart. Kevin runs away with the Claw. He becomes captain of the Greasy Bastard, a small ship carrying rubber goods between England and Burma. Michael Palin, Terry Jones, 1974
Trout Commander Posted April 5, 2011 Posted April 5, 2011 Nice fish and that is a really neat picture. I love the way the spots looks through the distortion of the water. Thanks for sharing. 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
