Weekend Night Report

[Micheal Kyle]

Fished Friday night with a buddy of mine from KC, Duane and Ryan, we hit the water around 10pm and Mike and I fished till 3am. We all started down by Koa and then made our way up to 3 rocks. Got a lot of short strikes probably for every fish I caught I would miss 2-3, I must be out of practice.

Fished mostly Mohair leeches in red, electric blue and hot fire orange; then once the moon came up it turned off on those colors so we went to the good old standby of white, and ended up catching our best fish on White.

They wanted the fly pretty slow pretty much just letting it drift along the bottom with a slow steady strip.

Duane and Ryan left early so Mike and I headed up to the cable and fished nothing was happening up there so we left.

I did not try any top water flies there were no fish surfacing at all I think that maybe the run has peaked since the full moon. Plus for the Mice I like a certain water conditions and by the time we actually got in the water that was gone. How ever the story time was one of the best in a long time just wish Laker67 would have been there.

I sure like to figure out what the corp. is doing with water some of my favorite duck hunting spots up on the rock are starting to get dry.

Nothing too big at night this go around Mike ended up with a nice 21 inch brown and I had a skinny 24 inch bow. Here are a couple of pictures.

Nice report Micheal, sorry I missed you guys. One thing I always look forward to, is reminising with you guys at the creek. I was able to fish about 5 hours each day on thurs and friday with some breaks thrown in. I was wanting to fish after dark, but was unable. I had pretty much wore myself down during the day. Next time I will skip the daytime fishing. Hope to catch up with you on the next trip.
