Thread: Perry outflow

I never fished at the outlet. I heard nice fish come up when its being released.

I might give it a try. Any "go to" lures for it? I'm guessing with heavy current heavier jigheads/rooster tails/crankbaits?

You won't be able to fish the outlet until it is decreased to around 600 or less. At 2000 it's screaming out of the pipe. I suppose you could go down quite a ways to get away from the heaviest current but I've never done any good once you get past the end of the rocks

The outlet pool will be restocked :-)

Sticky nailed it on the head.

Was there two days ago, there was two men fishing eastside just at the outlet, said they had 4 saugers

It was increased to 6000 yesterday. That's nuts! I'll have to make sure to drive by and see it. They don't open it up that far very often.

Sticky. at 6000 fps that is something I want to see also---tomorrow

Most I've seen it was at 5k fps. Didn't need to walk down the rocks as you could fish from the top of the parking areas. Please post pics!
