hknfsh Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 Put in at Branson Campground Sunday morning with my buddy Frank and his boat. Phone call confirmed 3 units on line so we boated clear up to the cable at the dam to see what we could muster out of the current. Right out of the gate we both hooked a rainbow throwing 1/8 oz. jigs on 4 lb line. Looked like it was going to be a good day ! By the time we got down past the ramp we had landed 5. We made 4 drifts from the cable before letting the current float us on down towards Fall Creek. I caught 5 and missed that many on a Cleo (chrome) and 1 on a Rapala Floating Minnow (gold) during the last pass. Frank did well with the jig (gray) too. Funny thing.....once past Fall Creek we threw out Power Bait and drifted clear to Cooper Creek with maybe 2 takers. Ran on down to the island above 65 and finished the day floating to the ramp...boated 3 this time. Had a blast fishing the trophy are with jigs.....watching Phil's videos had me fired up all week to get down there and try it myself. All I can say is it works ! Thanks Phil !!
