The Weir

It was kind of a slow day at first for Jeff(jigfisherx) and I yesterday. Started out below the dam. Caught a few whites and a couple crappie I think. Nothing to keep. Left and headed to the Weir. Not a lot going on there at first so we went and dipped trees. Still no luck. So we head back to the Weir to finish up the day. We're back probably 20-30 minutes and Jeff says "do you see that, the whites are bustin over there". At first I didn't see it but then I saw what he was talking about. Pure mayhem haha. I have never seen anything like it. They were going nuts everywhere. We trolled over and started slaughtering them. Reeling in really really fast imitating running shad worked great! I bet we caught 12 or more just in our last hour there. Nothing crazy as far as size but It was such a good time. White body chart tail sliders were the ticket yesterday.

Wow I meant to put this in the fishing section not off topic. Stayed up too late and got up too early lol :)

Thats always fun catching them when they are up on top.

Sounds like you had a good time. Congrats.

Thanks for the post. Glad you got some action. Those whites are fun catching.

some of them whites on Truman can get darn big, not to mention the hybirds.

Thanks for the report. It can get awful fun out in front of that dam at times

SWPA website says running water from 30 to 120 all day starting tonight.

Whites are always fun when busting the surface. I chased them one morning on the Osage arm for probably an hour. At first there were no other boats in sight until one cruising by saw what I was doing. The pulled up about 25 ft. from me and started casting where I was fishing. Kept a limit but threw back many more. Biggest was an 8 lb. hybrid that was mixed in with them.

Sounds like a good time those whites can really pull some drag out
