Great!
Weather is great! Water is off! Only one word can describe the conditions right now….GREAT! We are expecting 70s to low 80s all the way into the weekend. Unfortunately, by Wednesday next week we are looking at 80% chances for rain both Wednesday and Thursday with a 60% chance Friday. As we know though, that certainly can chance.
No generation this past weekend, and so far every day this week, we have had units on in the a.m. Good news, they have been off by 10:00 a.m. and stayed off until late afternoon or early evening. Table Rock is now at power pool.
Again, fishing has been great Stan on the water all day this past Thursday with Gary and Gerry from Ohio. They were going to go out again on Friday but got rained out. No problem. They had a great day Thursday on the ruby 2.
Saturday, Darrell and Stan took Tom and his sons, Brad and Nate out for the day. The ONLY negative for this day was the WIND! Certainly makes a drift difficult. Tom was

with Darrell and they were catching on the ruby 2 and rusty midges. Stan had the two young men, Nate and Brad. Both are fairly new to fly fishing, but had a great day. Each of them brought a 17 incher to the boat among their many other fish on the ruby 2
Nate – 4/25/15
and P&P midges. Kevin and Steve, were with Jim all day and tearing them up on the little ruby and the hot hare’s ear nymph.
Sorry to sounds like a broken record, but Sunday, Stan took Curtis and Maria out for half a day. Lots of fish for these two on the ruby 2 midge. Mac and his friend Bob from Kansas, spent Sunday on the water with Jim. Another great day on the hot hare’s ear nymph, and the little ruby and P&P midges. No generation, but lots of wind.
Talk about wind. Monday, Jim took Mike from Iowa out for half a day. They put in at the boat ramp and the wind blew Jim’s drift boat up to just below the rebar hole! Jim didn’t have to lift an oar! It was a first for Jim! Good day for Mike on the size 10 JQ streamer, ruby 2 midge, and hot hare’s ear nymph.
Dave – 4/28/15
Not quite as windy Tuesday for Dave from Oklahoma. He had a half day float with Stan and it was another ruby 2 and P&P day.
