SilverMallard Posted April 27, 2007 Posted April 27, 2007 Just wanted to share a bit of motivation with y'all about chasing warm water fish on the fly rod. This pic is from yesterday. When the water warms up about 5 degrees, this spot is going to get GOOD.

SilverMallard Posted April 27, 2007 Author Posted April 27, 2007 If you guess, I won't confirm. But you still might win a prize. Depends on how confident you are in your guess.

WebFreeman Posted April 27, 2007 Posted April 27, 2007 I'll do it Latin so I don't give away your secret.

SilverMallard Posted April 27, 2007 Author Posted April 27, 2007 Not saying either way, but the correct word in your phrase would be Amnis instead of Aestuarium. Aestuariums are coastal inlets/marshes. Amnis is a stream. Latin has a word for river, stream, and estuary. And in Latin, everything that is not big enough to be a river, or is not coastal to a sea/ocean is an Amnis. So it is the best translation for creek, branch, slough, stream, etc. SilverMallard "How little do my countrymen know what precious blessings they are in possession of - and which no other people on Earth enjoy."

WebFreeman Posted April 27, 2007 Posted April 27, 2007 Creek was the third definition of Aestuarium. Not the best choice, but it worked. I doubt Cygnus is in the proper case, either, but again, it worked. And I think you mentioned in another post you were going there yesterday afternoon. “Many go fishing all their lives without knowing that it is not fish they are after.” — Henry David Thoreau Visit my web site @ webfreeman.com for information on freelance web design.
Root Admin Phil Lilley Posted April 27, 2007 Root Admin Posted April 27, 2007 From another post: "It was a bit raw out there this morning, but Russ Doughty and I managed to catch a few trout. They were all in the slot, but nice. We fished below outlet #3 for a couple of hours on 1 generator. Then we headed for Swan Creek. Very nice fish and nice report, Phil. Sounds like your fellas are having a good time." Wonder where he "headed"???
WebFreeman Posted April 27, 2007 Posted April 27, 2007 Darn it, Phil, you figured it out, too! I guess I'm not as smart as I thought I was. “Many go fishing all their lives without knowing that it is not fish they are after.” — Henry David Thoreau Visit my web site @ webfreeman.com for information on freelance web design.
SilverMallard Posted April 27, 2007 Author Posted April 27, 2007 Yes, I did give it away in another post. I figured someone would pick it up. But I didn't want to give it away easily to the casual web surfers with an old fishing pole, a stringer, and $5 for a carton of minnows. LOL I'm going to say this now... I HOPE that everyone will be sensitive this year to the reality that the past few years on upper Bull Shoals has been HORRIBLE for White Bass; and that it would be a good idea for us all to release these wonderful fish back unharmed into the stream to spawn this year...at least. We need a couple of good spawning seasons to help this fishery recover from whatever has been ailing it. Eating Whites THIS year might mean NOT eating them for years to come because we cannot CATCH any! That's just my opinion and my hope. It is, of course, legal to keep a mess of them. And I won't disparage or harass anyone who does so. But I do feel compelled to try and EDUCATE folks so that we can ALL enjoy great White Bass fishing far into the future.
