6/8//5 Report

[snagged in outlet 3]

I was on the water at 5 and left at 10:30.   Cooper and ran to the dam.  Took a while in the fog.  Caught a bunch of nice rainbows biggest one the 20+” er below.   The brown is only 17-18”s but a tank.   Everyone was catching.  Probably 6-7 guide boats and myself.   It really died about 9:30 or so when the fog cleared and the sun shone bright.

Those Browns are porkers. There must be an extraordinary amount of food.

Nice fish Pete. I was at grandson's 8U baseball doubleheader. He hit like his Grandma Susie today.

Those were caught on a ginger jig.  No bites on white.

One day if I catch one big one out of the trophy area with a bulging belly I’m going to keep it and see what’s in there.  Stockers maybe?    I haven’t kept a trout in at least 10 years.  And those were for a fish dinner on a camping trip.   For nostalgia sake.

Sculpins I'd bet. Every walleye I've kept out of Taney has been stuffed to the gills with sculpins. I did see a 3giant brown eating a 17" rainbow once. That was wild. Looked like a shark, ripping pieces of it off.

I was with Gary Flippin years ago down by Crooked Creek on the White.   We watched a bunch of browns coral some stockers against the bank while they took turns charging in and picking them off.   Some of the rainbows literally jumped on the bank to avoid them.
