Current Report
March 10, 2006
Meramec River has been
fishing very tough and is
driving people crazy. The
trout park is now open, and
when the fishing slows
there, the park fishermen
begin migrating downstream,
so the river is also
becoming a bit more
crowded. The rainbows have
been pushing upstream for
some time due to the urge to
spawn. The browns are
scattered throughout the
length of the river. Since
the rainbows are the primary
fish caught on typical
western flies, here, the
lower reaches of the river
are not producing the
results most expect.
However, the browns will
respond to streamers,
spinners, and little
crankbaits. This is one of
the most challenging trout
streams in the state, but
the payoff is potentially
big with 20" brown trout
present in many locations.
Plan on doing some walking,
and work the kinks out of
your haul casting
technique. When a brownie
takes your streamer, you'll
feel every ounce of his
weight, and you'll be glad
you came.
