Brian K. Shaffer Posted December 27, 2005 Posted December 27, 2005 I remember years ago turning a left and driving left towards the lake - then winding along a little bluff to the right.. then there was this sharp corner -- where I saw tons of fish -- peering down to my left, from high above in my truck. I parked and got rigged .. I got out and walked down to this spot.. and lost 3 bugs faster than I knew what hit them! There were big bluegills... and lost of big healthy bass. Anybody know this spot ? screaming reels - Brian 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.
Wayne SW/MO Posted December 27, 2005 Posted December 27, 2005 Well theres a place North of the "whistles" on Devils Teatable that fits that description. Today's release is tomorrows gift to another fisherman.

Brian K. Shaffer Posted January 3, 2006 Author Posted January 3, 2006 This spot is above the dam, right at the main local dock area. 160 sounds like Missouri waters, so let me know if I am confused.

Wayne SW/MO Posted January 3, 2006 Posted January 3, 2006 There's a place on Beaver creek that fits your description perfectly, that was what I was thinking. Today's release is tomorrows gift to another fisherman.
Sam Posted January 4, 2006 Posted January 4, 2006 This spot is above the dam, right at the main local dock area. 160 sounds like Missouri waters, so let me know if I am confused. If you meant BELOW the dam (Powersite), I'd say you were talking about Beaver Creek or maybe Shadow Rock where Swan flows in - but there's no dock at Swan. If you really mean above Bull Shoals dam, that's a long ways away. On a lake that's about 55 miles long, a bluff and a couple of left turns don't give enough description for me to know a place. And I'm not familiar with a lot of the lower lake in Arkansas, anyway. But catching bass and bluegills on a fly rod and poppers sounds like a lot of fun, and I'm sure there's lots of places on Bull Shoals where it could be done.
Bill Butts Posted January 4, 2006 Posted January 4, 2006 If you meant BELOW the dam (Powersite), I'd say you were talking about Beaver Creek or maybe Shadow Rock where Swan flows in - but there's no dock at Swan. guys, it appears there is some confusion on where is being discussed, but just to clarify one thing......there WAS a dock just above the mouth of Swan Creek for many years but was removed years ago. When water conditions are right there are some great gravel shoals within walking distance upstream for walleye and white bass in the spring. my 2 cents (my wife says i have NO cents/sense) BB Bill Butts Springfield MO "So many fish, so little time"
