Fished Friday and Sunday.

[taxidermist]

Fishing started slow Friday but ended really well. my son caught really nice Brown and I landed a nice bow. We had a lot of 12-16 inch fish.

Today we went from Cotter to Ranchette, spent eight hours fishing it, yes I know its a not so long of stretch of water that most people fish in in 4-5 hours but then we did catch fish.

My son lost a super brown at Rim Shoals, we did very well on the shoal into rim, well enough to warratn a second and third pass. He also lost a nice bow while drifitng a 1/16th oz olive marabou jig when the hook broke.

Yep Mild minner we are taking pics to prove it to ya!!! Its sure gonna suck for you when I post them ROTFLMAO!!!!

Well its late we just came in 10:40pm been a long day since we hit the river early this AM. My wife drove the truck and trailer, she did not do well from the bank, so about 6:30PM I picked her up at the ramp we headed back to the hole beloew Rim Shoals Catch and release where she landed some nice 14-16 inch bows.

The COE has been running some water the last few days amking it a bit harder than normal to catch fish. Even the regular guides were slow they said. I think the trout are full as all seem to be a bit roound.

Great day sure as hell great to be alive and even better to be on the water with your kid and later the wife!!!

Later
