Sunshine!
Wow! Two days of sunshine! Don’t know how to act. Slight chances for more rain tomorrow and Wednesday, but by Thursday it looks like more sunshine and temperatures in the 80s for both Thursday and Friday. Saturday looks s little like rain, but back to sunshine Sunday. We just need a couple weeks of no rain!
Still running around 20,000 cfs of water at Table Rock Dam. Three generators and five spillways open about a foot. I think we will see this for at least another week…..of course, depending on whether we get more rain.
Jim on the water Friday with Steve out of Texas. They had a good day stripping a size 6 tiger tail. Otherwise, it was the ruby, hot hare’s ear or a red San Juan. Carolyn had a pretty new couple on the water, Brian and Michal. They had not yet broken in their fly rods. We fixed that! They both caught fish on either a peachy or clown egg pattern under the big ruby, or a red San Juan worm. I think Michal caught one stripping a holographic green crackleback. Fun day learning and catching!
Sunday, the Mother’s Day Gods were smiling down on Janice. Jerry wanted his friend Janice to get started fishing, so he booked a half a day with Carolyn. This was Janice’s first time with a fly rod and we were not real excited about the 20,000 cfs of water. However, like I said, the Mother’s Day Gods were with her. She caught her first fish on a ruby 2 under the big ruby, plus several others, and even caught some stripping a tiger tail. Another fun day of learning and catching! Plus, it was a gorgeous day. Lots of sunshine!
