Yep! Saw Rob out there making some roll casts -- I tried my best to keep out of the way of his news article research (I think that's what you said?). Sunday was easier without the wind, and the bite was great. As I was leavning I watched 2 spin guys and 1 fly guy with a bright yellow rod planted at the outfall. Don't get me wrong -- the outfall can be great, but I move on if they aren't biting well.
Scott - I fish all around the place, but usually not too far upstream of the outfall. It seems like as it gets colder and colder, fewer fish seem to hang out up there by those poles. I could be wrong though.....wouldn't be the first time.
BTW -- some nice La-Froyg warmed me up immensely (Beth picked some up). I love that stuff!

Gene had a bent rod all morning Saturday.. Loads of white perch in outflow that ignored all flies. Did see a small goldfish in there making me want to tie up all orange Clousers.
Sent from my iPhone--I'm 98% sure that's what it was anyway. I haven't caught it since that one time 2 years back, but someone surely will before too long. It was either that, or an unusually large, off-color giant gourami. Sat was average, Sun much better.Still has hundreds of LMB, some yellow perch, bluegill, crappie, and a few catfish. You can catch so many fish on a fly that they'll wear the point down and destroy all the materials tied to it.Saw a massive catfish meandering around, but I think he was blind (cataracts, battle scars).Just my opinion, but the outfall sucks compared to the other spots recently. Don't waste your life away standing there when you can be hooking up on every other cast elsewhere ;). Unless that's what you like.Gene
