Fishing Report

[Phil Lilley]

Fished alittle today - 3-dark at the dam wading. Met some guys from Tulsa FFF that are staying here for the weekend. I started above rebar shoot and they started at the head of the shoot. I believe they were fishing #16 olive scuds and hooking some trout there. I started with a #18 dark J-Scud drifting without an indicator (experimenting) and caught one brown... more or less by accident. Fishing was slow for almost everyone; not people fishing at all but I understand this morning was very crowded.

We worked down below rebar and didn't do well. I saw several very nice browns and rainbows holding in the stream but they weren't doing a thing, moving away from my bug if I got it close. I caught one more brown before the horn sounded I think at 5 pm.

Talked to Mike Scott when I got back to the resort- also from Tulsa. He has done well fishing from Rocking Chair down to KOA using zebra midges almost exclusively and green- yes green has been the best color- #16's and #18's. I asked him green as in olive or kelly green?? He said green. Another color I have to carry in the shop!
