Fishing Report
How's Fishing?
We have had a great weekend at Bennett Spring. The fishing was great and so was the size of the fish. Kids fishing yesterday was also very successful. Kids from all over came to enjoy a free day of fishing before school starts up. The Ozark Fly Fishers and the Bennett Spring Fly Tying Group were at the Spring handing out several awesome prizes and flies to kids. Beetles and dry flies are still working real well. If you like fishing cracklebacks- It seemed like every angler had a color that was working. Ginger snap and Salmon seemed to be the hot color for the marabou. The trout magnets-chartreus in zone three were also a hit this week. I hope everyone had a great weekend.
