9-29 through 10-1 trip

[Devan S.]

After doing some checking around at the white I headed over to the campsite I had at Dam Quarry. Along the way I stopped at the confluence and fished and Ackerman. I did not get a bite at either location but did not fish much and was more exploring options for night time fishing. I fished right below the dam with a jerkbait/jig and caught multiple rainbows prior to dark. Got camp setup and began fishing after dark. Right away I caught another brown. 

Right as the moon came over the hill I hooked and landed a really nice walleye probably 23". About that time @Prifish tells me he has a fish that is just running and he isn't gaining ground. He fought it for awhile and finally brought a Hybrid to the net. This fish really gave him a good fight. 

It wasn't but maybe about 5 minutes and I hooked a fish in the upstream pool right below the dam that just ran and I couldn't stop. I kept pressure and finally landed this 8.5lber.

At this point we fished a bit more and called it a night to get up early and head back to Bull Shoals.
