ruthead Posted September 25, 2012 Posted September 25, 2012 Is anybody seeing any Brown Activity yet?? "Pretty soon we may not have any rights left because it might infringe on someone's rights"
Brian K. Shaffer Posted September 25, 2012 Posted September 25, 2012 I am.. but they are all small male fish thus far. Once the big female fish show up.. it will be hit and miss. The weather plays a huge roll in this too. Just once I wish a trout would wink at me! ozarkflyfisher@gmail.com I'm the guy wearing the same Simms longbilled hat for 10 years now.
laker67 Posted September 25, 2012 Posted September 25, 2012 Have not noticed any full body jumpers at night, but, have seen quite a bit of monach activity the past week.

Members jefly77 Posted October 1, 2012 Members Posted October 1, 2012 Fished Fri night from 9-1 and did real well on rapalas. (I spin fish) I also threw the PMS jig and caught a couple. I missed a real good fish right in front on outlet 2 early on. Only caught 1 rainbow and about a dozen browns so, yeah, they are definitely moving up in good numbers now.
laker67 Posted October 1, 2012 Posted October 1, 2012 Howdy J77, I talked with you about 11:30 on friday night, and I recall you saying that you had caught mostly browns. I was the old timer getting geared up at the pavillion. Got on the water just as they shut it down at midnight. First bite of the night was a nice healthy 4 lb rainbow. Caught several more in the next 3 hrs, but all were rainbows. I have seen this occurance several times in the past, browns seem to key in on rapalas. A few years back, I witnessed an 18 lber caught at night on a rapala. The guy came in behind me, and caught it on the first cast to the water I had just spent some time fishing. You are due for one of those big fish.
ruthead Posted October 1, 2012 Author Posted October 1, 2012 Good to hear. I also hear that for some reason the browns clear out between the 25th thru the 29th of october which is good as thats the weekend we're going down!!

That's to early, I always say they are gone by thanksgiving. You should still have good activity at the end of october.
ruthead Posted October 2, 2012 Author Posted October 2, 2012 Sorry laker67, I was trying to be sarcastic in stating that the browns will be gone the 25th thru 29th. That way the stream would be less crowded for the time period we are going to be there. "Pretty soon we may not have any rights left because it might infringe on someone's rights"
Greasy B Posted October 2, 2012 Posted October 2, 2012 Small browns (under 20 inches) doing the belly flop down close to the MDC boat ramp. Belly flops? Chasing emerging insects, maybe caddis? 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
