Going to Broken Bow Thur-Sun and mainly fishing the lake but am going to take my 6wt and try and sneak a away for an early morning foray or two with my 11 yr old to try and catch a rainbow or two. I am going to go by Sids shop Friday afternoon, but need a couple of ideas on where to park and try to get me started Friday morning until I can get a map from Sid etc. Any idears on something that is fairly easy access and my son could throw some trout bait or rooster tails near me type area?

A good place for your son to catch some trout would be the pool below the dam at the start of Spillway Creek. Use corn on about a size 10 hook. That's where my daughter caught her first trout.

Good luck,
Rex

i wouldnt fish directly behind the dam, fish seem not to bite there, id go to zone 1, and go down where there is a little bridge and a pool on the east side of the road, and put a tiny bober and use worms and corn, there are some huge trout in the little pond

there are Trout this time of year?.. are yall talking about here in Texas?

no its in oklahoma, about 2 hours north east of mckinney

Thanks for the ideas guys - I will post a report when I get back.

ill be there this monday

Artan Saliovski,

I was just at the restraunt and saw your trout is that from your trip Monday? Pretty nice Fish!!

no it was from a month ago, was i not there? you should have said hello

Didn't have but about two hours to fish on the river Saturday mid-day (spent more time fishing the lake, and it was sloowww). I caught a 10in rainbow on a fly (and had two other takes I missed or fish got off), and my boys caught a couple on powerbait. It was mid-day up river from the 2nd footbridge in the Spillway creek area. Seemed to be biting the tiniest flies I had in my box. Some spincaster guys told me that the best bite was afternoon. Talked to a couple of guys that fished for 7 hours in Zone 2 and never got a take. Sure is a pretty place.

Yeah you weren't there. Or I would have.

what do you mean artan is never working. you will find him at cabelas before you find him at sicilys hahahah
