Root Admin Phil Lilley Posted August 20, 2015 Root Admin Posted August 20, 2015 Annual electric shock survey tonight. Brian Shaffer said 5 boats put in at dark. Zero units tonight. No fog either. If I didn't get up at 5 this morning I'd be out there.
laker67 Posted August 20, 2015 Posted August 20, 2015 that means no fishing tomorrow, and maybe the next day. weekend looks good.
Root Admin Phil Lilley Posted August 20, 2015 Author Root Admin Posted August 20, 2015 Just talked to a guy this morning that fished the area they shocked last night- caught some good trout including a 20-inch rainbow. He watched them work the area at outlet #2 for 45 minutes. He walked down within an hour and caught fish there. I always thought any fish that was shocked wouldn't be caught for a while but I guess I was wrong.
netboy Posted August 20, 2015 Posted August 20, 2015 I used to think that if a trout was caught and released it wouldn't hit a fly again for some time. Last trip to Norfork I caught an 18" rainbow that had 2 very distinct markings, a lamprey scar on one side and very distended vent. It definitely was not a dumb stocker. Well I caught the same fish 10 minutes later in exactly the same spot.
