Members Knee Deep Posted April 21, 2007 Members Posted April 21, 2007 I caught this rainbow around noon Saturday the 21. It's weight was 4.25 lbs and was 21 inches long. It sure made my day. I was fishing with a tan scud and WD40 dropper. A group of trout is called a hover

Members Old Stumbler Posted April 22, 2007 Members Posted April 22, 2007 Yes Saturday was a beautiful day. We started fishing about 6:45 pm below the Dam at Tablerock. It was a bit nippy and Pam or Knee Deep was cold. They were generating two and it was about 706. Nice for Chute No 1. Knee deep was complaining about her Arthritic hands being cold and after a while she went back to the truck to warm up. I stayed on fishing. It was rather slow but I kept on casting and catching a few. You see men can't leave when it is cold. We are the dominant ones you know. Well while she was gone I caught a 19" Brown that was rather heavy. I did have witnesses but no pic. It was also a nice fair catch. No snags. Well to make a long story shorter Knee Deep finally returned and caught a few on her new favorite self tied fly, the WD-40. We hung in until about noon and the bear in my stomach was talking to me and I decided I wasn't for being dominate any longer. I told my wonderful wife that I was going to the truck. She said ok and made one more cast at a large rainbow she had been stalking all morning. It took her favorite fly and the fight was on. Her and the Rainbow. I layed my net down in the water and she guided it in very gently. I didn't realize how big it was until I saw him fill up my rather large net. Well we got pics, measured him, weighed and released him in good shape. Pam was the happiest I have ever seen her. This was truly an epic moment in her short trout fishing experience. She has been fishing for trout about 3 years with a fly rod. She is the perfect fishing partner. She loves to tie exotic flies and all the basic stuff we use at Taney and elsewhere. To be honest she out fishes me on most days. We have really enjoyed our new hobby and all the great friends we meet. We have met most of you that post on here and will try to see you all on May 19. Enjoy what we have in the Ozarks because we aren't around long or healthiest enough to enjoy it. Good day Friends, and keep on casting. I hate those "toe stumblin" rocks!!!
