JestersHK Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 Saw your one cast from out the window Phil. Glad to see and hear that everyone is safe. Hope things start calming down a bit. Finally stopped raining today up here... Crazy amounts of water... marcus 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Root Admin Phil Lilley Posted December 30, 2015 Author Root Admin Share Posted December 30, 2015 Uploaded some images in Gallery. https://www.facebook.com/LilleysLandingMarinaBranson/ Been posting on our Facebook page since all I have during the day is my phone. My main computer is still in storage. Posted One Cast from my sun room at the house. It's a 7 foot drop but I have a good shot at the slow eddied water over our road. No snags over payment! And the fish are liking the slower current there. The rainbows we're catching right now are VERY strong and nice looking. Caught several 15 inchers and all are very fat. This happened last flood- they're eating a lot of something. There's been a TON of threadfin shad wash up along our bank in the eddies yesterday and today. Had a few rainbow come up and slam them too. I'm telling ya... although they're a pain, floods are good for fisheries. The water is about 18 inches higher now than in 2011 so I knew 68,000 cfs was off, unless they were off in 2011. Today they revised their estimates to 73,000 cfs which makes more sense. So we are at our new high. With Table Rock created and Beaver dropping/reduced flows, the Corp has said they are going to reduce flows tomorrow morning sometime here on Taney. My dock- and our nieghbor's dock- will be glad. I want to make a run up to the dam before they do - by car of course. I've done the boat thing in 2011 and it was scary- even for me. But I will be up there as soon as they drop it throwing - yes - a white jig. It's going to be FUN the rest of winter!!! Oh yea- remember the walleye in 2011....

Members Kansasfly09 Posted December 30, 2015 Members Share Posted December 30, 2015 Hope everything is getting better for you Phil with the lowering of the water. Are they going to have to hold onto more water with everywhere else flooding and the worries about the Mississippi and the Missouri flooding? Was planning a trip mid January but we are going to play that one by ear now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
