CaptainT16 Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 Well, looks like we are having a Father (Bodyman50) Son (me) fly-fishing trip to RR on Monday. Just wondered if anyone was going to be down that way on Monday? I will be wearing my famous camo waders, can't miss me. Would like to meet some of you if anyone is going to be over that way on Monday. I will hopefully be able to post some pics of our "lunkers" we catch!

Kansas Fly Fisher Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 My son and I are looking at a trip on Monday to RR. I'll be driving a black Nissan with camo stripe on the bottom. I wear a green tilley hat as well. Will try to look you up if we make it. John Born to Fish, Forced to Work KSMEDIC.COM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are going to be fishing the whole place as we have only fished it once, but we will definately be there somewhere if you guys end up making it. We will be driving a maroon Explorer. Hope to see ya there.

Kansas Fly Fisher Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 Tyson, Great meeting you and your dad today. My son, John, ended up hooking the big female in the pool above the road where we were fishing most of the day. He fought her hard, but she broke off! How'd you guys do in the wading area?

CaptainT16 Posted January 10, 2007 Author Share Posted January 10, 2007 Yes, great meeting you two as well. Sounds like we really missed out. That would have been a great battle to have seen, too bad the fish one that fight. There were quite a few large ones in there, guess I should have tried harder to get them. Well, the catch and release wadable water was pretty poor. Dad ended up catching 1 and I caught 2 on a griffiths gnat and 1 on an adams. I was actually pretty dissapointed down in that area actually. Saw a lot more fish through that area last summer we were there, quite a few bigs ones too caught in that zone last year. Didn't really even see that many actually. I managed to catch one small rainbow in the middle of the zone and found quite a few stacked underneath the bridge there. Managed to catch two there and then the horn blew. It was a fun outing, although wish we would have caught a few more, but hey, sure does beat a day at work. I will say I pretty much caught all of my fish on a griffiths gnat. caught 1-2 on a zebra midge. I think I only ended up catching maybe 10 fish all day long. I tried everything from San Juan worms, to glowballs, to zebra midges, to adams, cracklebacks, g gnats. I guess there are days like that.
