JestersHK Posted May 29, 2019 Posted May 29, 2019 So I'm failing miserably at trying to fish Taney once a month... I've had some good trips, but work and personal life have been just beating me down relentlessly. I've just not been able to get on the water as much as I'd like. Luckily I have a long weekend starting tomorrow and although it's more of a family trip, I'm looking forward to some time in water again. Duane's trip today definitely got me pumped up. Hoping to throw jerks and jigs in the dark. I'll be hunting for some Walters to take home too. As usual I'll try to keep this post rolling, and if anyone wants to join me for some night time monster hunting just shoot me a PM. 24 more hours to go... can't wait, and hope I at least get a few windows of low flow to play in. laker67, Daryk Campbell Sr, Johnsfolly and 1 other 4
Daryk Campbell Sr Posted May 30, 2019 Posted May 30, 2019 Just got back from a week in TX with the family. Back to the grind for me. Hope you do well.

JestersHK Posted May 31, 2019 Author Posted May 31, 2019 Off to a late start getting down... Finally just now hitting the water. The website shows 0 generation, 20cfs, but the lake level looks to be about 3 units running... Weird.
MickinMO Posted May 31, 2019 Posted May 31, 2019 Corps site still shows 709 with no generation. However, the phone line says 3 units running.
JestersHK Posted May 31, 2019 Author Posted May 31, 2019 Had some decent jig action on a 3/32 black head and grey body. Lost a nice one right out in front of me... Good to get the rust off though. Switching over to jerks now. Johnsfolly and Daryk Campbell Sr 2
JestersHK Posted May 31, 2019 Author Posted May 31, 2019 The little wlure 606 model is just about perfect... I'm out of Doty specials in that size , but I bought a bunch of their generic rainbow patterns and at night they can be almost as productive despite not having Duane's artwork on them. Second cast a nice little chunker just hammered it. A good say 16 or so inches. Next cast same thing. A little guy in the 3rd cast and after that it slowed down as the water started falling out. Seems like they are slowing it down similar to what they did yesterday. Caught all fish up between outlet 1 and the cable tonight. Work, wrangling kiddos, driving, and me getting old has me back in bed early tonight... It's a good pattern if they keep it up. If waters still off when I get up may take my oldest out to go see what we can find. laker67, liphunter, Johnsfolly and 4 others 7
JestersHK Posted June 1, 2019 Author Posted June 1, 2019 Started around 11. Had 3 small bows, then got crushed by a nice fat silver bullet. Right at 19inches on the tape, but had some shoulders on her... Pics are gonna be crappy, sorry, I'm flying solo this weekend... Daryk Campbell Sr, Johnsfolly, BilletHead and 3 others 6

MickinMO Posted June 1, 2019 Posted June 1, 2019 Looks like the Corps app is still messed up for showing the proper generation MWH and CFS.
JestersHK Posted June 1, 2019 Author Posted June 1, 2019 I've been going off the gauge height. That seems to be accurate, but yeah it's been off a bit. MickinMO 1
