Ottercreek

Postby BROWN BAGGER » May 27, '09, 3:38

Well I didn't see a post of Ottercreek for memorial, so I thought I would. The water level was down some and the water clear. As for fishing it wasn't blistering hot, but kept us busy enough. Best part was; when those rainbows hit you pole, it would fly off into the water. Kid you not, everyone had wet legs below the knees...(good times) Rainbows were on a vengeance!

I heard that exact same story from somebody else....something like 40 or so fish for him and his wife....bows were fat, healthy and about 18". He was tubing and fishing from the shore...

Tell me about it orvis. I had to drive down to mesa az for my sons graduation. left 3:15 am to be there early enough for dinner and then the ceremony thursday night. The trip down was a long one. I dreamt of dropping off the boat on the way down, wife didn't go for it. We had a good time on the way back though. Stopped in the joshua tree forest, grand canyon, brice canyon, and hit some ghost towns on the way before Ottercreek. I'm starting to get depressed. I haven't even pulled the boat out from winter cover yet. I hope things pick up at work. here is some more pics......... :o

Thanks for adding the pics and the report. that's a place I would like to fish more often that's for sure. Nice healthy bows.
