ckrich Posted April 19, 2011 Report Share Posted April 19, 2011 A group of good friends and myself try to get together and head up to the Current River near Salem, MO, on the same weekend every year. This was the third year, my second, and it seems like we just keep adding at least one person every year. A couple of guys had to miss out due to work and previous commitments, but hopefully they will be able to make the fall trip. Here are a few pics.[ATTACH]6983[/ATTACH][ATTACH]6984[/ATTACH][ATTACH]6985[/ATTACH][ATTACH]6986[/ATTACH][ATTACH]6987[/ATTACH] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ckrich Posted April 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2011 It was fairly brisk and rainy on the first morning. The fish weren't biting all that well, really hit and miss. But after lunch the clouds cleared out and the bite picked up. It wasn't one of those "epic" days as far as numbers go, but you just can't beat fishing with good friends.[ATTACH]6988[/ATTACH][ATTACH]6989[/ATTACH][ATTACH]6990[/ATTACH][ATTACH]6991[/ATTACH]Here's Cole with the best fish of the trip. A streamer brought this guy up from the deep, and Cole's skills were tested a bit with the 7' 4 wt. he was swinging.[ATTACH]6992[/ATTACH] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun_300 Posted April 20, 2011 Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 Great pics, those are some nice fish you got there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ckrich Posted April 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 Thanks Shaun. The Current is by far my favorite place I've fished, so far. There is a good mix of browns and rainbows there, with a lot of variation in color(stockers v. resident pop.) I wish I had the pics from last year's two trips on this computer, there were a lot of good fish taken. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, we've been there a couple times. It's a great place to go and there are lots of fish, but just too many people for my taste. It might get kind of hard to find fishable water for a while, with all of the rain that MO and AR have been getting over the past couple weeks. I hope they catch a break before too long.
