Dale hollow fishing in the snow ?

[Fishin is life]

I don't think that holds true when it comes to the wind. If the waves are too big, it gives the fly an unnatural amount of motion for that type of water temperature. So if it's snow or rain that's come in with a decent amount of wind blowing, it's probably not going to be that good for FnF.

Michael, i remember you catching a goodun on the fly on cumberland in some rollers. We had to just watch for our bobbers when they were on top of the waves

That's true. Maybe that was dumb blind luck :-)

well,i guess the only way to find out is to to fish dh when its snowing at different times and see what happens. but I agree it has a lot to do with weather condition factors more than just snow !

From what I have seen on Dale this indeed holds true. I have fished it for over 20 years and I pray that it either rains or snows everytime I'm there. Never been there and not caught fish when it was snowing. It has more to do with the low light levels than anything.
