Niangua River Tr 12/27

[HighPlainsFlyFisher]

Finally got the chance to hit the water again this past week. With only one day to fish I decided to hit the Niangua and see what was going on. The water looked perfect to me , up a little and slightly stained , just how I would have ordered it. The weather was incredible for this time of year and that alone made it a great day on the water. The fishing was not as good as I expected considering the conditions , I caught decent numbers of fish but they were all small cookie cutter stockers , no holdovers at all. I didn't work at it too hard and never ventured to even change flies all day , the setup worked just well enough to keep me from trying something else. I fished a two fly streamer rig with a size 12 red fox squirrel nymph followed by a size 6 sculpin pattern. I didn't feel like messing with indicators and weights so I just swung streamers all day. Quite a few other folks out on the water today and who can blame them , fifty degrees and sunny in late December , I'll take that any day.

He hit the public access first, then followed it up with a visit to NRO...

That's pretty much the story. Spent about three hours at each location with the public access definitely fishing better for me on this day.
