Headed to Little Red River.

It has been a whirlwind of activity for me the past month….not much of it to do with fishing. Got my house ready to sell and it went on the market last Thursday morning…..by Thursday afternoon I had an offer and accepted it. Now the real work begins as I have to be out by 1 September. But before all of this I had scheduled a week long trip back in January to fish the Little Red River for trout. So I’m heading out to have a ton of fun in 100 degree plus heat for the whole 7 days I’m out there. Got all my gear ready to go. Don’t think I’ll need my waders…will just wet leg it and try to stay cool. Taking the Major Craft FineTail stream rods…the minnowing 5’ 1” and the 4’ 10” UL full glass rod. The TenRyu Rayz Spectra 6’ 1” LL. Also taking a couple of area trout rods to work a Trout Magnet during no flow which is from midnight till noon. Will have to spend a 1/2 day meeting with builder to pick brick…paints…fixtures, and so on for the house but other than that it will be all fishing. Life is good!

Have fun, be safe and good luck

Enjoy the trip, hope you catch a ton of trout.

Have fun and enjoy your new fishing grounds. Hoping you get enough to make some good memories. Be careful and take pictures

Thanks for the comments. Long trip out here. Stopped by my lot to meet with the builder to go over some things then to dinner and the Cabin at Cow Shoals. As you can see from the pic I had a dinner guest….LOL. Tomorrow gonna hit trout paradise.

Nice cat.

Glad you got your house sold. Looks like things are falling in place and I hope they continue to do so. I also hope you are able to bust some big trout while you are down there. I saw where Leland Lures is teaming up with D2 jigs. Have you had a chance to use any of the D2 jigs?

Thanks…..I have fished them and they are a great bait. Mate them up with a good Ajing rod and you’ve got a killer combo. I sold my Corto 2018 and now regret it. That is the perfect rod to fish the D2. Caught a bunch of trout this a.m. many times doubling up. Not a fish on ever cast but darn near! My host and I were both using JDM trout spoons…..nothin big but when using UL tackle 12-14 inch trout are a blast.

I’ll have to give the D2 jigs a try or may visit the tying station. I for sure think the Corto would be awesome for those jigs and might give it a try. Glad you are on the fish and I hope you hook into a toad!
