Green Machine Gains Strong Experience ~ Big Fish Day On The Pueblo Tailwater (PT) Section of the Ark 11May26

I headed to the Arkansas tailwater seeing mostly stable flows ~125cfs for 5 days below the Pueblo rez. Plus, Kala was on-pointe for the remodel this day. This is not high enough for this time of year but visibility was good, and bigs were sighted. The big cutbows were deeper, or in the tail of runs and holes most often ~ though I need heavy flows to float my bug choices through and caught my best in faster water around rocks. There was a strong mayfly hatch at 8:30-9:00am (yeah - I was there early for me) and great bug-sign early/similar for many species; I tried to match the PT-like stuff but caught some on cobalt bead Destiny's Child too while mayflies flew. The best producer on the day yet, flung from Green Machine, was the #22 Awesome Midge. I caught 2.5 fish/hr at the Nature Center 1st (AM) then similarly during the PM session at Valco Ponds and upstream. The bigger fish were a 21" cutbow from the Valco section and an 18.5" cutbow from Nature Center. I spotted a weird tangle of prior drowned bikes at NC too.
