I'm heading there Christmas night. Plan on hitting the park at sun up Wednesday morning. Christmas present to myself. Haven't wet a hook since summer.

Christmas break starts for me on Thursday this week - so I'm planning to camp starting Thursday morning until whenever I get tired of it. Should be in Elm this time I think. Good a place as any to spend the holidays.

I thought if it is going to rain Tuesday through Thursday I might come next Monday and Tuesday. Now I see rain then too. I just want to fish. Can't a guy get a break. I scheduled off for this. It's going to rain all week and I woke up with a sore throat and congestion this morning. AAARRHH!!!

I am looking forward to the week as well, though the only I day I can fish is the 27th. It may be raining!
What is the fishing like in the red zone beyond the powerhouse?

From the powerhouse to the old park dam at the start of zone 2 is no fishing or entry into the water. You can fish just above the powerhouse at swim beach bridge, though.

I'm always prepared to fish in the rain. I have good rain gear and know how to stay warm and dry. It's just not a good idea if I might be getting sick but I feel better today.

Well the weather is cleared up enough and I'm not sick. So the trucks loaded I'm going to bed and I'll be leaving Palestine at 4 a.m. hopefully the past 2 days no real pressure on the fish and they're settled into the holes and waiting for me to come and hook them.

Got hear Wednesday morning at sunup. Started a hickory hole under the bridge. Nothing there so moved down to the straight and caught two 13" right away. After awile I caught two more but were little. Then after ten They turned off and then it got crowded. No other fish so I turned in early. Enjoyed the sound of rain on the roof of my truck.
This morning I started at the swim bridge but if was silty and full of debris. Gave up a bit after 9. Went to hickory and everyone was there. A lot guides too. Fishing was shoulder to shoulder and the fish didn't turn on till the afternoon. I caught 3 all day.
Decided to stay another night.I'm making this report from Steven's gap restaurant. They have free WiFi. And I'm enjoying the Hamburger steak.
