My Fishing Report

[MrDucky]

Howdy all . Well today i had to work (got called in out 1:30 am last night , and today was a schedule day off) . So about 2:00 today i decided to check Jolly Mill park out . It is a awesome place , Very clean water and alot of historic things to see and read

This I think is the main water way here at the park

This Photo is of the old dam , there were a couple of big fish in the run off , If you can wade there with a fly rod you could have a blast

This photo is of the mill , It runs once a month on a Saturday it would be super cool to see . The rest is down stream of the mill . I fished there with not alot of luck

This picture is pointing up stream towards the old dam

So very sorry for the crappy pictures , not sure whats wrong with it

This picture is from the old bridge pointing again towards the old dam , That bridge really makes alot of noise when you walk on it

This picture is pointing down stream from old creeky bridge , I and an other fella fished down under the bridge u see in this photo

Okay now the fishing Report , these 2 fish were caught using a salmon egg . The bigger one seemed to be around 14 inches or so . I used my fly rod for a bit with a red San Jaun . a couple of strikes but not really any takes on it . I switched to a midge and caught 1 about a 7 inch . It was extremely cold and hard to cast with frozen eye lids on my rod and my EYES . I then switched to my spinning rod and power bait , caught another mayby 8 inch . All in all it was fun and i do think its a great place to fish , Waders would be very helpfull and probally a little warmer aswell

anyways hope i didnt bore you all with this

Mr Ducky,

Regardless of how the fishing went, this place looks beautiful. Please bear with me as I am not from that area. Where is this place? I would be interested in checking this place out fishing or not.

Thanks,

Thanks for the pictures. I've been wanting to check Capps out, now I know I'll make a trip. The scenery looks to be as good as any. Thanks again for posting.

This place is just west of Monnett off highway 60 , No weeds up at the dam either . And no problem with sharing the pictures

Very nice Mr. Ducky. I've been wanting to go there, and those pictures aren't making it any easier to stay away.

Great report Ducky and pictures. It looks like Mrs D will finally have some fresh fish for dinner. I've tried Jolly Mills [Capps] a couple of times and basically struck out on anything over six inches. I just figured folks cleaned it out right after the stocking truck left. I'll have to give it another shot sometime.
