Micheal Kyle Posted November 22, 2006 Author Share Posted November 22, 2006 Since I got back down there on Sunday and was able to have a great couple of days catching and releasing some nice fish I decided to go back at night. I sent the scouts out during the day to see if the fish were still up by 1, they called with the bad news I told them to find them and they did several hours later I got a phone call saying they had located the big fish and were catching them. Not so good for me, Great scouts, oh that's sounds pretty funny fishing scouts. They were actually some really good friends and I could not join them untill I closed the shop. It was slow I had 3 fish all night 2 short like 15-16" both Rainbows and I caught them after I down sized the fly back to the good old MOHAIR LEECH. How evere around 12 am I was in the rebar fishing some steelhead flies that a friend of mine form Logan Utah gave me. The one that worked was a #4 Purple Wooly Bugger With 3 pink eggs attached. I caught a 27-28 inch Brown. And that was it not much to report. I will take a pic of the fly today and see if I can get it to post. The fly is just an egg sucking woolybugger. But tied in a diffrent way not your typical egg sucking leecch. You will have to see it to understand. Michael To Know People Is To Know Thier Ways!

tippet7 Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 I love dry fly fishing!! Saturday and sunday the majority of fish I caught were on dries. Saturday once the wind picked up a little bit, i tied on a stimulator and caught a couple, lost the fly and my tippet to a hard strike and short run, never saw the fish! caught a few more on a humpy. sunday i was using griffiths, adams and something i did not know the name of, it was black with a touch of gray thrown in. You are so stupid you threw a rock at the ground and missed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Root Admin Phil Lilley Posted November 23, 2006 Root Admin Share Posted November 23, 2006 Again, I felt like alittle fish for dinner. Boated (again) to Fall Creek and had no problem catching 4 nice rainbows. Fished from 4:30 - 5:20 and caught 15 rainbows, mostly on a #16 black zebra under a small palso indicator 18 inches deep. They were midging all over the place. Tied on a #18 red soft hackle the last 10 minutes and caught 3 more. Couldn't do anything wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snagged in outlet 3 Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 Whenever I bring the skillet they won't bite. SIO3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snagged in outlet 3 Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 I did that to get your attention. Just got back from the Taneycomo Mall. Flew in Tuesday morining on my chartered '99 Yukon with a leaky water pump and warped rotors. In flight service sucked. Voss Tuck Port coffee and a half eaten bologna sandwich. My flight arrived at 8:30 and I suited up, walked down the steps and waded straight through outlet 2, to aggravate the snaggers, and headed to the gauntlet where I nailed down 2 browns and a rainbow in quick order. Then that freak at the power house caught a glimpse of me and blew the horn. 3 TIMES!!!! I waded straight up the middle of outlet 2, to aggravate the snaggers, on the way to the truck and went to Phil's shop. I have got to open a resort because when I walk in, Phil's wife is working and he's out "skeet shooting". Two customers are trying to spend north of 200 bucks on fishing stuff but I told em to get some bobbers and mini jigs and bag all those other things his wife told em to get. Bought a tapered leader and a pack of palsa's and went to get a campsite. The guy in the power-house must have seen me drive away and turned the generators back off while I drove to Lilley's. Left Phil's and went to the State Park to get a campsite. I put my giant coffee mug on spot 165 to save it and paid my $14 and headed to the river. I started and stayed around rebar and had a great day of fishing. Many browns and just a few rainbows at the end of daylight on dry-flies. Browns were fooled with olive scuds and the rainbows were suckers for chernoble ants. Headed to Big Cedar for some things for my wife and I was a sucker for the blueberry poppyseed dressing and some body butter. Trust me on this, body butter for your special person is all that and a bucket of chicken. Speaking of chicken I headed to KFC to dine at my leasure, then went to the chalet Yukon at spot 165. Somebody took my giant coffee mug off my spot and the lectric didn't work. I mean, stealin my coffee mug is one thing but I have to have my lectric blanket. Stumbled around in the dark and found some lectric and moved camp. That just means I drove to another site. Wednesday morning I packed up and had breakfast at the gas-station. MMMMMM, coffee and Krispey Kremes. Went to river and waded straight back through outlet 2, to aggravate the snaggers, on my way to the rebar hole. I saw several XXL browns roling in the rebar hole at dusk the night before and was determined to slay the beasts. Well I didn't slay em and in fact didn't see em at all. On Tuesday the fish were friskey and feeding and roaming around. Wednesday they were sleeping and laying around. Had a decent day till around 1 then had to catch the charter back to St. Louis where I was greeted with rush hour traffic and my in-laws. I'm smokin a turkey tomorrow and shovin the in-laws out the door in the early afternoon. 520 miles, bad coffee and a stolen giant coffee mug. Man I've loved that mug forver. Catchin a few trout, PRICELESS. You guys that live close enough for fishin after work or short day trips should count you blessings. Oh yeah, Happy Thanksgiving! SIO3.

LostMyWife Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 Sounds like my last trip, without the catching fish part. I too am taking the trek from the St Louis area to Taney. Leaving late this afternoon. I'll look for your mug. Happy Thanksgiving LMW Yes, I'm That Guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry Beeson Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 SIO3, I heard the Taneycomo giant man-eating squid is a caffeine hound....

Rusty Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 Armadillo's I tell you, Armadillo's. They have evolved to be a upright walking mammal (rodent), without appossing thumbs, and are going to take over Taney County. Man's caffeine has disturbed nature to this point.
