Fishing Report 4/13 - 4/14

[DeepDiver75]

Fished Taney Friday afternoon (yes in that hellacious T-storm) and Saturday. Despite the rain,sleet,lightning and wind the fishing was great. Had the entire place almost to ourselves on Friday and caught fish at will almost everywhere we went. I probably had my best luck in the stretch right below rebar hole, but it was really a matter of if you find the fish they'll bite. Fishing a two fly rig with a #20 Dk olive scud as the point fly and a G-Bug as a dropper. If you didn't get a take on the drift you could just let the flies swing around downstream and over 1/2 the time you'd get a take as the flies were swinging up in the water column (usually the G-Bug). Saturday was a little nicer and the fishing was about the same. A few more people on Saturday though. Didn't see a lot of big fish (over 20") as I was sight fishing the shallow runs, but lots of numbers in all the usual spots. There seemed to be a lot more moss than in past years, is this the didymo that they talk about on other tailwaters or just a benign form of moss. Just wanted to make sure that I wasn't helping to spread the stuff around.
