Root Admin Phil Lilley Posted May 22 Root Admin Posted May 22 The 7-day map shows we're in the center of the target - 5-8 inches of rain. Beaver is full. Taney is high. BS is 20 feet high with 20 feet of room. They'll go from 15,000 to 20,000 cfs if TR goes over 920 which I'm sure it will. Water temp is 66 at the cable on the spill side, not too bad. Lots of warm water fish up there swimming around. I caught 5 species last evening - largemouth, crappie, walleye, gar and a rainbow. I worked to get the trout... MOstreamer, FishnDave, dpitt and 1 other 4

jdmidwest Posted May 23 Posted May 23 Been watching it all week, 3 day weekend and everything is calling for rain. All my fishing partners are doing other stuff, wife working, grandkid working. Farm caught up as much as it can be with wet weather. Had been working myself up for a road trip to Beaver Tailwater, never been there. Drive south thru the upper Quachita Mountain chain that I have not seen. Toss a tent in just in case I can spend a nite out and camp. Fly Rods only, no boat. The NWS forecast just blowed that out for me. Looking in all directions for 6 hour drive, nothing. Missouri, TN, Ark all washed out in every direction. Bite the bullet and punt. dpitt, snagged in outlet 3 and Daryk Campbell Sr 2 1 "Life has become immeasurably better since I have been forced to stop taking it seriously." — Hunter S. Thompson

fishinwrench Posted May 23 Posted May 23 Weather forecast "professionals" have nothing to sell.... but BAD WEATHER. Nobody hates on them when their drastic predictions fail to happen, but they catch hell when a bad storm happens and they DON'T predict it. So they ALWAYS predict on the heavy side.... playing it safe. Especially on a holiday weekend. Looks like just an average spring weekend in Missouri to me 🤷♂️
