Current River 4/23/04

Met up with Mike, a member of the Ozark Chronicles board, at Montauk lodge around 6:30am. We went down to Baptist Camp Access to fish. Morning started out a bit slow untill the fish started hitting on some huge mayflies that were hatching. They were about a size 12. I think we both managed to pick up a couple of fish on dries. From there we continued downstream throwing a little bit of everything and picking up fish from time to time. Good day fishing, however it was extremly cold paired with a stiff wind.

Hey Kris

Yeah, you caught 6-7 including that nice 15"-er. If I remember most of yours came on dries, which I had a heck of a time presenting since we were mostly moving downstream. I ended up with 3 plus a few miscellaneous fish all on various crayfish-colored streamers.

I felt bad for those guys in shorts we saw floating down in canoes. Looks like they picked the wrong weekend.
