Terrierman Posted June 24, 2013 Posted June 24, 2013 Took a little float Saturday. The river is getting low, some rain would be nice. Scenery at Linden was excellent. Once I got away from them, the fishing was actually pretty good. Caught a half dozen or so smallies, the biggest was probably 15". The goggle eye were really biting good, they were hanging around in wood as they usually do and they were also on chunk rock anyplace deeper than maybe three or four feet. Caught one of if not the biggest goggle eye I've ever caught, had to be ten or eleven inches long and at least three inches thick across the heavy part of the back. I had a spinnerbait (single hammered chrome colorado blade, orange/chart skirt) on one rod. The other rod had a 1/8 oz chart jighead with an electric blue metalflake twin tail grub. Both got bit but the jig with the grub seemed to produce better. The recent flooding hasn't been kind to that stretch of the river, there are several new trees down blocking the river, I had to get out and drag at least five times. Also one of my favorite holes (right above Green Bridge) got a LOT of gravel washed into it.

OzarksRiverman Posted July 10, 2013 Posted July 10, 2013 Linden to Green Bridge I spent a lot of days on that stretch of creek in my younger days. Usually great fishing.
