Caney last night/today

[Travis C.]

Arrived at the Caney around 11pm last night and fished through noon today. Fished the Dam overnight with only about a 4ft gar to show for it.

Dad met me at 6am and we spent the rest of today until noon from Dam to the bluffs.

Fishing was slower than normal but believe there were a few things I could have done better to help that out in hindsight. Lots of fish I just played tug with instead of softly fighting on light tippet were broke off. Dad continues to get better at flyfishing each trip out. He caught more brookies than I did today.

I'll attach a couple pics of him having fun. :D

Nice pic Travis. Wow, that's looong time to spent in water :)

I were there today https://maps.google.com/maps?q=Rock+Island+State+Park%E2%80%8E&hl=en&ie=UTF8&ll=35.816804,-85.643749&spn=0.009309,0.021136&sll=35.824912,-85.587959&sspn=0.074464,0.169086&t=h&hq=Rock+Island+State+Park%E2%80%8E&z=16

:o caught tens of bluegills, they really bother me, because they will bit every cast. I caught two heavy things, but lost them somehow.

From where did you lunch your boat?

I did swim in Rock Island State Park‎ the higher first foot of the water were worm, and all the water under it cold :D was great time

I was here on this end of Center Hill: https://maps.google.com/maps?saddr=Rock+Island+State+Park,+82+Beach+Road,+ Rock+Island,+TN+38581-4200&daddr=Buffalo+Valley+Recreation+Area,+Silver+Point ,+TN&hl=en&sll=36.099993,-85.832469&sspn=0.004846,0.006856&geocode=FfByIgIdGCXl-iHOKAUkkJEGzykpce115CphiDHOKAUkkJEGzw%3BFUjfJgId2k _i-iFrkdScJZ1QJinFrx1GCsRmiDFrkdScJZ1QJg&oq=Buffalo+Valley+&t=h&mra=ls&z=11

I have never been to Rock Island but we may go that direction for our family camping trip this fall.

Sounds like you had fun up there.

Newbie, glad you caught some fish, your were over there with the walleye and the muskie's. Travis, you need to try them this fall. Caney, Rockey and Calfkiller. Lost a big muskie(bass set up no steel leader duh) over there a couple of years ago. Gas got so I high quit making the trip over there(live by Spencer creek on OH). The gourge over there is beautiful too.
