Just Plain Hot!
It was just plain hot on the water yesterday. Today would be no better as it is in the 90s with high humidity. Friday and Saturday are predicted to be in the mid to upper 90s and the weather channels have issued a heat alert as the heat index will be triple digits for these days. By Sunday, we will see a drop to the low 90s for Sunday through Tuesday and chances of showers.
Taneycom9 just keeps rolling along. Still non-stop generation for the past 5-1/2 days. Table Rock Lake is now at 922.6 and dropping. It has dropped almost two feet in the past seven days.
Jim on the water Tuesday and yesterday with his couple from Hawaii, Wayne and Colleen. Tuesday they handled the full day, but yesterday, they just got hot and were ready to come off early. Did have a couple very good days on the red midge, gray scud and a size 6 sculpin bugger.

Wednesday, Stan had Jim, from Overland Park, and his brother-in-law, Wayne from Illinois out for the morning. Dana has Wayne’s son, Ryan with him. Wayne and Jim were catching fish on the red and cerise San Juan worms and stripping an olive wooly bugger. Dana had Ryan on the cerise San Juan worm, a peach fur bug and the silver crackleback.
Another Louisiana couple, who have been out with Carolyn at least once each year for the past four years, Ron and Kathy spent yesterday on the water with her. Kathy loves her fishing. Like I said earlier, hot day, but the fishing was pretty good. Best flies were the red or cerise San Juan worms, stripping a yellow belly 56er and the silver crackleback on the sinkling leader. Did get a small window of stripping a rock worm caddis soft hackle and a holographic green crackleback just under the surface when we spotted some fish sipping. Wind came up and that was it.
