Life at Outlet #2

[Seth]

Just glue a piece of popper foam on a small hook and toss that in the flow. They think it's a small pellet of fish food and you will catch one every cast for a while. At least then you can say you ain't shuffling and you ain't snagging them.

Never could get excited about fishin in a barrel.

It's a lot more exciting when people bring their kids down to swim in the outlet.

Wow.  Why not just fish in a stocking pond?  Not my cup o' tea there, but to each his own.

I'm spoiled with my boat.  This looks like ZERO fun to me.

If they kick their feet they can catch the trout right in front of them, no need for the outlets... I know lots of guys that have to resort to that method.

 

Hush!

That's what Taney kinda is.... but you won't hear me saying that.

Even the kids that fished the pond inlet at my old Trout Farm had more sense (and manners) than that.

Those guys need to trade their 'spensive gear in for an 8 foot cane pole with 7 feet of 8lb braid and a #6 Eagle Claw hook. Then instead of some other idiot's line getting wrapped around your legs, you could grab their fish when they flopped it in your face and head for the hills.

The old San Juan Shuffle has been adapted and renamed the Taneycomo Two-Step.
