          When Pat and I were first married we went down there and fished in a 12-foot boat and a horse and a half Neptune motor. Married in 1977. Could not even afford a camera so no pictures. Did a trip a couple years later with same boat but borrowed a three horse Martin outboard. Good grief I am getting old!

That's isn't old... but I like to see the lake at that time.  See how much it's changed.

Just talking to someone about the gravel bars at Short and Fall Creek - how they're almost gone.  Everything is flattening out.

I can still fondly remember the old Fall Creek dock with the campground. Mid to late 70's we would always put in down at the Branson boat dock next to Sammies and go upstream. I remember that dock so well because of all the famous people with pics of trout on the wall! Wasn't uncommon back then to see many a lunker rainbow coming out of there. My dad caught a 9 pounder one day and in the same hole my mom hooked on to one bigger. She fought that beast on her Zebco 33 all the way to the boat until my brother got the net under it and it broke off and back into the depths it went. Dad is long gone, but mom sure does remember it well. Especially since it was bigger than the one Dad caught just less than an hour before. That and all the dock owners would let you tie up and fish when the water was running. Shoot, they would even come down and open up a can of corn and chum for you! lol

There are only three things in life that are certain : death, taxes, and the wind blowing at Capps Creek!
