Members Nharris Posted March 31, 2015 Members Posted March 31, 2015 ive never fished roaring river before. I'm gonna be in branson for the weekend. Seems like 4 units at taney isn't gonna be ending anytime soon so was thinking about trying out the RR. Can anyone give me any advice on flies to use. Thanks

timsfly Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 Mega worms, San juan worms, big black woolybuggers, micro eggs, pheasant tails, soft hackles, fishing has been pretty good, water is still murky, with a strong flow, starting to see a few caddis and blue wing olives.

Bill Anderson Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 Tim has it all pretty well covered. I fished for about an hour and a half Tuesday in the lower camprgound and caught 6, one was a nice male with a hooked lower jaw. I fished a glass 4weight, and caught two each on an #18 brassie, 18 cinnamon ant, and a 20 cream elk hair caddis. I lost several others before I could land them. Like Tim says, the water was up about a foot and murky. It was coming over the top of the rock dam at the mouth of Dry Hollow, too. But the fish were active. I fished a big pod of fish that had gathered under a big tree and were hitting something apparently falling off the tree. There was a bit of wind at times, but the fishing was good. I get tired of standing after a couple of hours, so that the limit of my fishing for the day. I have a friend, a Jewish carpenter, whom you should get to know. If you do, your life will never be the same.
