It’s All In The Smiles!
Broken record. Weather continues to be exceptional for this time of year. Lots of sunshine and warm temperatures. Chances of rain moving in Tuesday and Wednesday, but temperatures remain in the upper 60s to mid 70s most of the time.
Table Rock Lake is down below 916.5 and we continue to see generation 24 hours/day. Very little generation at Beaver, so they still have a little over five feet to dump into Table Rock in order to get back to their normal power pool. But, we’re getting closer! Bull Shoals is also running 24 hours/day and has been for the past five days.
Stan had Darby, from Texas, out half a day Thursday. Good day for Darby on both a beadhead olive wooly bugger or the holographic green crackleback stripping with the intermediate sink tip. He really liked working the sinking tip.
Friday, Stan and Carolyn had three generations of Herschends on the water for the morning, Peter, his son Jonn, and grandson Hugo. Carolyn took Jonn and Hugo and Stan had Peter. Think Jonn has a fly fishing buddy in Hugo. Second time with a fly rod and he is roll casting, mending, and can definitely detect the strike, set the hook and bring in the fish. Although his first fish was on a red midge with a red San Juan dropper, his favorite, after catching a few, was stripping the crackleback. These were the best patterns for everyone that day.
