Another Good Day On The Water!
Biggest problem for today will be the WIND! Almost blew me off the porch this morning…..well it seemed like that. We will experience lots of wind today along with mid 60s. Still 40s for Wednesday and Thursday but the flurries seemed to have left the picture. And, the weekend is looking good…mid to upper 50s is certainly good for February. No rain. Plus, Punxsutawney Phil has forecast an “Early Spring!”
Table Rock Lake is now at power pool. However, I think the plan is to now lower Beaver Lake and maintain a flow through Table Rock dam to keep up with the input from Beaver. Bottom line, we will continue to see flows in Taneycomo. The good news is that it should not be much more, if any, than we have been experiencing, As a matter of fact, the flow rate for Wednesday is 50 MW almost all day. This is the equivalent of one unit and the levels in Taneycomo could hover around 704 to 705 feet.
Good day for Janice and John from Oklahoma who spent yesterday afternoon on the water blowing around with Stan. Water still off colored so they found the cerise San Juan worm to be the ticket. First time we have had alpaca ranchers on the water! Had to put this rainbow on the site. It is gorgeous. John caught this one.
Another fun fly tying session this past weekend. Everyone learn to tie a pretty simple wool head sculpin! I can even tie it. They we did some small barbell head pine squirrel sculpins. They’ll be ready for this pattern this coming fishing season. Basic fly tying this coming weekend.
