Fished This Afternoon

[fly2fish]

Wife and I are staying in Branson tonight, she is by the pool and I went fishing.

4 units running, nobody up at outlet 1, just one guy and me, I must have caught

30 in about 90 minutes, almost all on a deer pellet fly, 2 or 3 would have gone 18"-19"

It was fun, kinda boring after awhile, but still better than working

6' 2wt and a new peerless reel, 5X tippet, only broke off once. I'll try to do

It again tomorrow.

Tim, I must have just missed you those nights, I fished between outlets 1 & 2 Sunday through Thursday nights, usually didn't get there until after 10PM. The water had dropped down to 2 units by the time I got there. I used the split shot above a white leech when the water was moving pretty fast and the flyrod when it was kind of slack. Caught most on the split shot rig the first 3 nights including several whites and 1 smallmouth. On the fly rod, black hibenator or PMS worked best. Most were in the 15-18 inch range with one being just over 21. Wednesday and Thursday night almost all were dinks 12 and under.

You missed me by a lot I was in bed by 10:00 each night, I only fished a bit

In the afternoon, we floated and caught several on Thursday.

I can't tie deer hair to save my life so I just cheat and glue a small piece of popper foam on to the hook and go over it with a brown marker.
