the dam i am talking about is about 3/4 of a mile UPSTREAM from the 1022 bridge that notates the delayed harvest ffo section. My wifes family runs the heinz camp there so i have access to getting right to the dam but you can wade or walk up to it. Tough wadding but its pretty shallow up there now. I had a monster brown on a few weeks ago there and had a sucker hit my point fly and toss the hook on the brown. He was prob in the 18-20 inch range. There are a few nice holes and runs from the bridge on up but my father and grandfather in law were there all day last week and caught about 10 trout each and some monster smallies like in the pictures above while sitting on the dam. I've had success at the dam with streamers on both bass and trout. There's also an abundance of helgamites and dragon fly nymphs on this stream if you want to fish it when there's not a hatch. I really like a salmon egg pattern at dusk. The trout were hitting it every cast when i was there last week. Too bad it was too dark to see where you were casting or I woulda stayed all night. I'm probably going to try to hit the whitefly hatch in the next few weeks.
Can someone post a whitefly pattern now that we're talking about this hatch so much???
