Flyfishing the big O.....


Recommended Posts

Hardly anyone envisions scenes like THIS when they think of Lake of the Ozarks 😉   Especially on a late Summer weekend.IMG_20220823_182108698.jpg

You can cast your arm off in this is area during the day and seldom get a bite, but the magic begins to happen about 6:30pm and lasts until dark.....or possibly beyond.    

What a great way to wind down after a hard day working 🤗

I can relate to the witching hour fishing for temperates this time of year, I’m just usually not in that skinny water.  I’ve been out of town and thought about coming down this weekend but it’s that one weekend when every wing nut on the lake is a race boat driver and I decided to wait.  Thanks for letting me know what I am missing!

I caught a crappie off that twig one time.

Is that the high dollar Sea Deck on that boat or the knock off stuff?

Yeah it's highly contagious. For the next 2 weeks everyone will be operating their boats as if they left their brain in the $#!thouse at the ramp.   🙄 

It will take 3 gruesome deaths, along with lots of pleas for monetary assistance to families, to settle everyone back down again.

It's the stuff from Amazon (still not cheap by any means).   I liked it at first, but it's only going to last 3 years in the sun before I have to rip it up and replace it.

Here's a little extra juice for anyone wanting to go play this game...... IMG_20220826_234942275~2.jpg

I'm calling it the "HL Streamer".   (HL for Hobby Lobby, as everything needed to tie them comes from there...... except the #2 stainless hooks of course. 🙂 

Better than fur strips and hair because a sink-tip line will take it down really easily.....and keep it down all the way to the boat.  

Once you see it wet you'll have an immediate orgasm.  😁👍

Whatever you do DO NOT put any red on it.....

cuz then you have to call it The Tampon.   🥴
