22 June 2024 “summertime fishing!”

[HEN]

At 6:00 this morning they are still not running the bunger valve. The river could actually use another good flushing!!  They have been totally shut down since 30 May. I fished at River Ridge yesterday, did not raise a fish!!!  The water temperature was 81 degrees, guess the fishing is over down there for this year 😞.

Fishing is fair at the park, but you have to get out early or the bite slows around 10:00 am. I'm still throwing a slider with fair results. I did move down to 6 x tippet last week. The water clarity is really good, all the silt has fallen out and no rain here for over a week.

Thanks Mike, appreciate your info and time.  Really helps.

I can't get over there as often as I would like but I really do appreciate your periodic reports on the conditions at L'Mo.

Jim, I have not seen you and Judy in a year!!  Hope you are both doing well??  I have some flies that I tied for you over a year ago!!!

Hang on to them,Mike.  We will be back soon.  Last time we were at L'Mo you had gone to Norfork.  We had fair to good fishing for 2 days and one super evening prime time with small drys.
