What's New?

How's the fishing? I haven't been to LIR in a few years. I bet It's changed.

I'll try go get up there in a week or 2.

Thanks

Hi David, the river hasnt changed a whole lot. Marval has moved the river around and made two intresting little Rock Pier type things the go out into the river. Good fishing off of em too. As for the dam, not too much, there was one interesting little change made where they narrowed down the river and made a small channel. Youd need a heavy fly to get down to em' (suppose they are on the bottom as it is rather deep there). I havent gotten to go down in about 2 weeks and its driving me insane!

Give me a PM and tell me when your coming down and I may be able to go fishing with you. Im not at all good with spin fishing stuff anymore. I just dont fish it. But if youve got a fly rod Ill be able to help ya out.

This is really random but is earth 100% guarunteed circular? Just wondering O_o

Thanks for the info. I would enjoy the company. I'll PM you ahead of time.

I used to have a few favorite spots on the LIR.

I have several fly rigs, the problem is I can only tote one at a time on the river.

I met you up at Taneycomo and hope I didn't wearout my welcome.

I took you advise and registered on the OAF.

Ahhh! I know who you are now! hehe sorry I guess the name just didnt click in my brain! Nah you didnt wear out your welcome at all. Did you catch any fish? I only caught three fish the whole weekend... There were so many people I couldnt even truly enjoy it.

Most of the ones I landed were in the slot although I landed 1 rainbow at

20 inches. I did lose 2 larger ones trying to get them in hand.

I guess I need to buy a net.

Next time try down around the boat ramp. Not as crowded and it was fishable

during generation and even better after the water has gone down.

Have you ever fished the flatwater just downstream of Mar-Val's boundry?

It ought to be good for streamers and wet flies. I caught a couple of 10

inchers there once on a Mosquito. The water was real low, about knee deep.

I may not make it to LIR until 12/08 due to holiday and deer season unless

it's during the week. I might be free this Saturday but it's kinda iffy.

Yup... Good place for nymphs! Had about 30 fish in about 2 hours on a size 14 Hares ear in a riffle there.
