Well, I didn't fish as much this summer and fall as I had planned. I camped for three nights at McLellan's Trout Dock in July only to fish about thrity minutes each day before generation started. I called the powerhouse on my way home to find there was no water running at Bulls Shoals and so pulled over and fished at Wild Cat Shoals. Started slow but ended up catching fish on every cast starting at noon and for about three hours as there were little yellow mayflies coming off. My only other outing was to the Beaver tailwaters last weekend (fished 10-22-05) and caught fish about every cast from noon to 1:30. Fish were taking olive midge pupa, ruby midges, diamond midges and a nymph that I like to tie with a goose biot abdomen and a rabbit hair (with lots of course guard hairs) thorax. I watched a twelve year old girl fishing just up stream from me with her dad catch at least a dozen in about an hour and she was loving it. I think it was her first of many fly fishing trips. Lots of pretty trees. Look for future postings as you are now brought up to the present time and future postings will be more current. I do plan to get out this winter. Anybody want to go with me?
