dpitt Posted July 29 Posted July 29 I believe the hopper/terrestrial bite has started at Taney. Hit part of the narrows and above bluff bank with a hopper pattern. Lot's of action, landed nice size bow, 2 eats 2 hookups, one threw hook other big fish wrapped around some timber, this all happened in.a short period of time, thinking it should just keep getting better.

Root Admin Phil Lilley Posted July 31 Root Admin Posted July 31 Nice to hear!! I need to get out and see it for myself! Question - water running or not?
Root Admin Phil Lilley Posted July 31 Root Admin Posted July 31 I've also been seeing a lot of big Japanese beetle-looking bugs, but these are triple the size of what I usually see. I wonder if they'd work... someone showed me a half dz jbugs they found in a rainbow's gut back in June. dpitt 1

Gumboot Posted July 31 Posted July 31 Those little Japanese beetles almost completely defoliate my Lindens some years. Those big ones might be the death of them... dpitt 1
fishinwrench Posted July 31 Posted July 31 The big ones around here have a iridescent glowing spot on their belly. Alien creatures that I don't think I've ever seen before. Had to sacrifice one to get a pic of it's underside. nomolites, dpitt and snagged in outlet 3 3

I have seen them devour a peach tree. I'm talking the fruit. As kids we caught them and tied light sewing thread on a leg. Powerful flyers we would fly them around. dpitt 1 "We have met the enemy and it is us", Pogo If you compete with your fellow anglers, you become their competitor, If you help them you become their friend" Lefty Kreh " Never display your knowledge, you only share it" Lefty Kreh "Eat more bass and there will be more room for walleye to grow!"
