Had to revive this. I am definitely planning on attending, just have to remember to bring my good rod and reel back from MO!

Are you a fly fisherman? I would bring a spinning rod too if you come to the fishing trip. Fly fishing has been tough for me the last few times I've been out with the last sunday in December only landing two fish. This past sunday I landed 6 and missed several so It was some better. I'm just not having days like I did earlier in the year last year. Water has been between 45- 52 degrees lately.

Nope. Although I'd like to eventually learn fly fishing, I'm a spinning rod fisherman only right now.

I think I'm going to head down to Sapulpa tomorrow and get my Sapulpa license and hit Pretty Water, providing I can find my trout gear. If I left it all in MO at my folks I guess I might still make the drive.

Bait fisherman are doing okay on the Lower Illinois. My buddy use a spinning rod with a certain rapala that those rainbows love. He has been catching more than me lately using his spinning gear. He doesn't have the patience to fly fish all the time, he was putting power balls on his fly rod the other day. He said it was time to cheat.

Alright, I gotta ask. What gives here in OK? I went to Bass Pro and Academy here in Tulsa, and no one carries plastic trout worms? Is it just a "local shop at the river" thing?

Even HellMart at home carries them, granted we have a trout hatchery and Roaring River State Park, but I'm pretty sure I can get them at Bass Pro Springfield. . .

Or is trout fishing just NOT as popular as this forum makes it sound around here?

That's crazy. I really figured I'd have no problem finding them at Bass Pro here, with several trout fishing locations nearby and MO trout fishing just over the border. I honestly figured you guys would have more trouble getting them.

Well, I think I have 2 bags of them somewhere, just gotta determine the where for the some.

Edit: Crisis averted. Found my worms where they shouldn't have been. In a tackle box.
