Conodoguinet Fishing Again...

[krayfish2]

Seen the boats stacking up near the mouth to get after the fish in pre spawn position. The Connie is fairly low and clean for this time of year. It's probably one of the better places to get an "oops, got a musky" hookups.

And 2 more from today. At least my wife will know where to find me in the evenings now that they are starting to bite

I caught a few fish on the spinning rod yesterday on the connie. Couldn't catch anything on the slumpbuster so I had to put the fly rod away and bring the spin rod out. Are you using an all grey slumpbuster? Where can I buy it from? Besides having issues casting far, I think it might just be the way I am stripping the line back. I used a 5WT from Hobbs creek and as for the slumpbuster, its just from a pack on amazon.

Sounds about right. I was just over there the other day. Looked very clean

A little over a week ago I was fishing just below the mouth of the Letort looking for trout and I ran into two kids who were fishing for bass. They showed me a pic of a musky they had caught earlier, looked around 30 inches or so.

Nice fish!
Mine are grey/brown. I can post a picture of them when I get home tonight. I make my own, though I'm sure Precision and/or TCO has them.

Ah gotcha, thanks for the info. I will try to find some similar to that then. Pictures would be appreciated!

They can be purchased at The Fly Stop (Google). They have the slumpbuster in numerous different colors/sizes, including grey. Pretty good quality, very reasonable prices, and they have FAST delivery. I've gotten my flies from them for quite some time and I've never been disappointed. Hope this helps.
