Got a little worried saturday when the Sulphurs did not show themselves on low water. This was the first time in a couple of month’s they haven’t been there. Every other day, they have started hatching an hour or so before the water hits and continue right on heavy until 6:00 or so.
But Saturday , they were a no show on low water.
But Sunday they reappeared in large numbers. And on high water the hatch was heavy. So what causes bugs to back off for a day like that. It was overcast and rainy.. did that do it? We have all seen the pour off in the rain and snow before. I don’t know but ” they are back”.
If you have read on the internet about an argument about fishing a certain peice of water . The area they are talking about is BELOW the last trail on the TVA proerty we all call the culdasac. It goes for about a 1/2 mile down thru there. The culdasac is not affected at all. Most of you have heard of it from a year or so ago. It is a very small part of the South Holston River that affects a very small portion of fisherman. Most of you have nor ever will fish there. This river is VERY open to public fishing. The landowners are as good to all of us as can be. So no problems for you guys to come fishing and fish where you always have. Because thank goodness the Sulphurs are fine and the fish are fat.
God Bless,
