duckydoty Posted February 5, 2007 Posted February 5, 2007 I was able to get down to Taney before the Super Bowl started and do a little fishing. Started at chute 2 around 5:30 P.M. and 4 generators were running. Tied on a weighted size 14 grey sow bug with a size 18 tan sow bug dropper. 1 fish right away. After that I couldnt buy a bite. Changed to size 10 midge with an egg dropper and nothing. Used a san juan worm dropper and nothing. Sow bug and san juan worm combo with nothing. Not a thing, not a thing, not a thing!!!!! Went to chute 1 with the same results so back down to chute 2 to try some more. The moon started to peak over the horizon around 8:45 P.M. and thats what the fish were waiting for!!! Fished till 9:30 P.M. and caught 11 more after the moon came up. 3 of them were brownies. Caught them on the size 10 primrose and pearl with a size 10 primrose and pearl dropper.

jjtroutbum Posted February 5, 2007 Posted February 5, 2007 Anyone else on the water? And I guessing that these are the same wonderful P&Pearl that ya tied up for the swap?

Members SLIPPERY SI Posted February 5, 2007 Members Posted February 5, 2007 i had picked up a side/weekend job so i worked all day saturday, stayed at the parents house in kimberling, and was able to be in the water @ 7:15 am sunday....caught 1 one a sow scud (single, no dropper)..had to be at the job site @ 9:00 so 1 fish in about an hour & 20 minutes of fishing (real slow in outlet 1)....worked until 1:30...fished from about 1:30 to 3:00 @ #2, caught 2 on sow scud (single,no dropper), jetted over to outlet 1, fish were going CRAZY on topwater, tied on a dry fly w/ no luck... finally got my hands on what they were feeding on, turned out to be hatchery fish pellets....decided to call it a day!! i am currently looking into how to tie up floating hatchery pellet!!
duckydoty Posted February 5, 2007 Author Posted February 5, 2007 There were a couple of fellas at chute 1 while there was still light. Once the sun went down I had the whole place to myself. Yes, the primrose and pearl are the same that I tied for the swap. Duckdoty A Little Rain Won't Hurt Them Fish.....They're Already Wet!! Visit my website at.. Ozark Trout Runners
Members SLIPPERY SI Posted February 5, 2007 Members Posted February 5, 2007 sounds like i should have waited until the sun went down ....never been night fishing down there, may have try that sometime...maybe when there isnt 4 generators running

Randall Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 slippery, check the fly tying thread, there's a bunch of recipes in posted in the one named "hatchery food" or something like that. Cute animals taste better.
