Little
Red River
Rainbow Trout and Brown Trout
The water is at normal levels with only one generator running at
half power part of the day. Fishing is excellent for trout on wax worms, Power
Bait and night crawlers.
Remember that there is a new size limit on
Brown trout. All browns less than twenty four inches must be released
immediately no matter where they are caught

JOHN BERRY FISHING REPORT 1/16/2010
During the past week,
we have had brutally cold conditions and high winds, which have evolved into
much milder weather. The lake level at Bull Shoals Dam fell four and eight
tenths of a foot to rest at five feet above power pool of 654.00 feet. This
is thirty six feet below the top of flood pool. Up stream, Table Rock Lake
fell nine tenths of a foot to rest at three feet below power pool or
nineteen feet below the top of flood pool. Beaver Lake fell three tenths of
a foot to arrive at six and nine tenths feet above power pool or two and
seven tenths feet below the top of flood pool. On the White, we have had
high levels of generation around the clock and no wadable water. Norfork
Lake fell three and three tenths feet to rest at two and three tenths feet
above power pool of 552.00 feet or twenty five and seven tenths feet below
the top of flood pool. On the Norfork, we have had round the clock near
maximum generation and no wadable water. The Corps of Engineers has
maintained its aggressive drawdown of the lakes in the White River System.
At this time, I predict that Norfork Lake will return to power pool in one
week and Bull Shoals in two weeks.
With the brutally cold
conditions we have had, boat launch ramps can ice over. Exercise extreme
care when launching your boat and avoid icy ramps all together.
There will be
significant changes to trout fishing regulations effective January 1, 2010.
The Catch and Release section on the Norfork River will be increased from it
current size of 1.1 miles to a new total of approximately two miles. The new
upper boundary will be the bottom of long hole and the new lower limit will
be the Ackerman access. The new regulations will also allow for multiple
hook points in Catch and Release sections on the White and Norfork Rivers.
Up to three treble hooks will be allowed. All hook points must be barbless.
Of interest to fly fishers is that the new regulations will allow the use of
droppers, multiple fly rigs and articulated multiple hook streamers.
The fishing in the
Catch and Release section below Bull Shoals Dam closed on November 1, 2009
for the brown trout spawn. It will remain closed until January 31, 2010. The
section from the bottom of this Catch and Release section downstream to the
wing wall at the State Park is seasonal Catch and Release for the same time
period.
The White has received
very stead flows of approximately 22,600 cubic feet per second or the
equivalent of seven full generators. The lack of fluctuation has allowed for
reliable fishing.
On the higher flows we
have been receiving, use brightly colored San Juan worms (red, hot
fluorescent pink and cerise) and egg patterns (red, pink and orange). Other
effective patterns have been scuds, sowbugs, copper johns and various midge
patterns. You will need a fourteen foot leader combination with a lot of
lead (at least an AAA split shot placed eighteen inches from the fly). Use
at least 4X tippet and a large strike indicator to float this rig. It will
be difficult to cast so open up the loop to prevent tangles.
Another effective
strategy is to fish streamers. Concentrate on banging the bank or any heavy
structure where fish might escape the current. Your best bet would be to use
large articulated streamers like the zoo cougar on heavy (300 grain or
heavier) sink tips. You will need at least an eight weight rod to cast this
rig. Use a short piece of heavy mono (three feet of 2X fluorocarbon tippet)
in lieu of a conventional leader to help get the fly down. This strategy
targets big fish, but is a lot of work. I like to carry two rods, one that
is rigged for streamers and one that is rigged for nymphs.
When we have high
flows like this, trout will seek the comfort provided by feeder creeks to
escape the heavy currents. Look in the lower stretches of Jenkins Creek or
Crooked Creek to locate trout.
The brutally cold
temperatures and high levels of generation we have been experiencing are the
perfect conditions for creating a shad kill. This generally occurs when the
water temperature on the lake is forty two degrees. Threadfin shad are drawn
through the dam turbines and create a feeding frenzy in the river below. Be
on the lookout for gulls feeding on the shad below the dam. The most
effective flies will be white shad patterns. Be sure and have both floating
and sinking versions.
Crooked Creek and
the Buffalo River are running clear. The water temperatures are too cold
for the smallmouth to be active.
The flows on the Norfork have held steady at approximately 6,600
cubic feet per second or the equivalent of two full generators. On the high
flows we are receiving, brightly colored San Juan worms (red, cerise and hot
fluorescent pink) and egg patterns (peach and orange) have been the go to
flies. Long leader tippet combinations and heavy weight have been the secret
to success. Work the banks and submerged weed beds. Be on the lookout for a
shad kill.
Dry Run Creek has fished well. The hot fly has been sow bugs in size
fourteen. Worm brown San Juan worms and egg patterns have also done well.
The weather has improved a bit and now is the perfect time to take your
youngster to Dry Run. Be sure and take the biggest net you can lay your
hands on and don’t forget the camera. Carefully revive all trout and return
them to the creek as quickly as possibly.
The Spring River
has been fishing well. The water level is perfect for wading and the water
has cleared substantially. The hot flies have been Y2Ks, olive woolly
buggers, cerise San Juan worms and cotton candy. Be sure and wear cleated
boots and carry a wading staff. There is a lot of bedrock that can get very
slick.
Remember that the White and
Norfork Rivers are infected with didymo, an invasive alga. Be sure and
thoroughly clean and dry your waders (especially the felt soles on wading
boots) before using them in any other water. Many manufacturers are now
making rubber soled wading boots that are easier to clean and are not as
likely to harbor didymo.
Practice
water safety and always check conditions before you leave home.

WHITE RIVER:
Report by:
Mountain
River Fly Shop Updated:
12/31/09 This is
the last report that we have
2009 has been a funny year on the
White River system, at times the fishing has been
amazingly spectacular, though wade fishers have
still had to contend with unfavorable water for much
of the year.
We started with high flows left
over from the 2008 floods, but which had produced
some serious growth in both rainbows and browns, and
walked into one of the best shad kills for years.
Shad were an influence as far downriver as Buffalo
City, and who could forget John Arthur’s monster 27″
brown taken with guide Clint Wilkinson.
The caddis hatches of March
and April were amazing but waders only struck it
well for a week around Sowbug, with even boat
fishers watching the caddis come off like clockwork
for weeks, seemingly unmolested by the trout.
Hopefully they will be as prolific this year.
Similarly the PMD hatches of
early summer were phenomenal but rarely were fly
fishers able to target dry fly feeders, the Journal
had a couple of memorable days, but higher flows
kept the fish feeding deep. The insensity and spread
of the hatches certainly seemed to be particularly
strong in ‘09.
Instead for a lot of the crew
around the shop, spring and summer was streamer
time, fishing the higher flows with larger
articulated flies on heavy sinking fly lines. This
style of fishing is growing in popularity on the
higher flows, and new developments in rods and fly
lines is making it more accessible.
In September we finally got
some good wadeable water, and a bunch of old faces
returning. But so did the rain pushing the lakes
back up into flood levels, indeed there was so much
water in the system. The White operated through most
of the last half of October and through November, on
relatively low flows.
But the Corp’s insistence on
using the number of generator units on its real time
flows recorded message, instead of the more accurate
cfs, meant a lot of people thought they could stay
away from some spectacular fly fishing. There were a
lot of places on the river that were wadeable,
particularly if you have access to a boat for
transport.
And the boat fishing was
spectacular on midges eggs and worms, with 80 to 100
fish in the boat days occurring regularly.
2010 should be another great
year for fish condition. The high water of recent
weeks has been fattening up the trout, and we are
expecting another very good shad kill. A lot, shad
kill included, will depend on the water flows we get
and the rainfall.
Two successive years of record
high rainfalls can only be an abberation, and
perhaps we are headed for another dry cycle. So much
remains in the laps of the Corp and the fishing
gods.
What we can be sure is that we
at the Mountain River Fly Shop will be doing our
damndest to make sure you get the best advice, the
friendliest service and exactly what you need to
have the same sort of fun we do on the White River.
We have some really cool new
stuff headed in for 2010 we are going to be bringing
in more quality flies that you need for this
waterway, we have some cool events being planned and
the fishing as always is going to be very very good

Report by:
Tommy Cauley of Fish Finder Guide Service
The lake level is rising slightly from
the rain. The surface temperature ranges from 44-50 degrees.
The walleye are biting somewhat,
many walleye caught are in poor condition and are not as far upstream as usual.
Crappie fishing is good in 20
feet of water in pole timber sitting in 60 feet of water. Minnows and jigs are
the best bet, and the crappie may make a run to shallower water with the warm
weather.
Bass fishing is good using Wiggle
Warts, Flat Shads, Rogues and Lucky Craft jerk baits worked very slowly (let
jerk baits sit for up to 20 seconds between jerks). Try these lures on main-lake
points, secondary points and in the guts of creeks and pockets. For the deeper
fish, try dragging a football head jig or Carolina rig. Swimming a grub through
the trees around 40 feet deep is also working extremely well. No report on
catfish. White bass in hybrids are on the move upstream. Use jigging spoons,
in-line spinners, grubs or Rooster Tails very slowly for the best action.

"Braggin Board"
March 10th 2010 - Hello everybody! I'm
back from all the boat-sport and travels shows in the Midwest. FINALLY ! I did
8 shows in 8 weeks. Thanks to all of you that stopped at my booth and said hi.
Now for the fishing. I haven't had a chance to go out yet but I have been
getting all kinds of reports. They are mixed reports so here goes. The lake temp
is in the lower 40's at this end of the lake. I am told its in the mid to upper
40's in the mid to upper part of the lake. Yes, it is colder then usual for this
time of year but we have had a cold winter. The water temp should rise quick
with the warmer weather. We really need a warm spring rain and things would
change quick. The water is very clear right now. I had to dive yesterday to fix
some things and the visibility was a goo 20 - 30 feet. I wen to down to a depth
of 55 feet and it was just as clear. Of course that was here in the marina cove.
I am told the back of the creeks are just as clear.
I am also told that there are
literally thousands of shad dying in the lake. This is normal when the water
temp gets in the lower 40's. This happens most years but some years the water
temp never gets below 50 degrees. It is definitely happening this year. This has
a tendency to make the fish very lazy and harder to catch. They don't have to
work for their food. They generally have to swim around with their mouth open to
eat. So, this can make fishing tougher because they dot have to work for food,
esp. at the end of the cycle like now. They have gorged themselves on dying shad
so they are use to having it easy. There are a couple of things to do though.
You can use baits and patterns that simulate a dying shad. Suspending rebels,
rogues and xraps for example. Jigging a spoon is another example. Basically
anything that simulates a dying shad. When the water temp starts to rise and the
shad aren't dying anymore then these patterns are also good because the fish are
use to seeing dying shad. So these patterns shoals work well for the next month
or so.
The next thing to try is something
completely different. I believe that fish are like you and I. They like to eat
different things. So, dragging a jig, tube jig, lizard or other types of "bait"
will also work. I have had one report that the carolina rigging a lizard is
working now.
Friday March 12th 2010 - Hey again. The
water temp is starting to warm up some. This should zig -zag with our air and
rain temperatures over the next month. We have had some nice warm days this past
week and the water temp has zoomed up to the high 40's - low 50's in the back of
some creeks. The WHITE BASS have started to get active. I have had several
reports of good stringers being caught back in the creeks. We have also had a
couple of nice largemouth caught this week. See picture page for these. White
River trout fishing is excellent as usual. I will be back with more after this
weekend.
Fishing patterns for spring 2010
starting in march
BASS-- Spooning - The first is the basic
vertical jigging . Look for schools of fish on depth finder and drop spoon into
them or under them. Jig up and down hoping to attract there attention. This
pattern was working anywhere from the main lake to the back of the creeks. The
fish could be anywhere from 5 to 50 feet of water right now. As soon as the
water temp warms up the fish should move up shallower. Second, cast your spoon
into the bank and slowly work back to the boat varying your retrieve. This could
work in 10 to 50 feet of water. Look for balls of shad and concentrate your
baits around them.
-- Stick baits such as deep diving
rogues, rebels and x raps. Also the suspending baits are good too. These baits
simulate a dying shad which is happening right now in the lake. The trick is to
work these very slow .
-- carolina rigged lizard- try this
pattern working it real slow, stopping it, crawling it, jerking it ect. Vary
your retrieve until you figure out how the fish want it. It can change from day
to day and spot to spot.
-- anytype of crankbaits that simulates
a bluegill type fish or crawfish. Work these baits in 5 to 20 feet of water .
-- Black jig-n-frog - this is an old
time favorite in cold water. The trick is to swim it very slow in 5 to 20 feet
of water or deeper.
-- Jig n frog , n salt craw, n 4 inch
worm - what ever your preference. This is catching Smallmouth bass in 15 to 25
feet of water on the gravel and chunk rock banks where crawfish hang out.
- Plastics such as grubs, hula grubs,
tube jigs - work these slow along the bottom simulating a crawling crawfish. I
would also try different depths until you find where the fish are. Anywhere from
15 to 55 feet.
-- Twin spins on the bluffs. This
pattern always turned on when the water got cold. Throw and twin spin on the
bluffs and let it free fall forever. Work it very - very slowly back to the boat
while pulling over the standing timber. White or shad is usually the best
pattern.
WALLEYE- I know a lot of you are
waiting for the walleye bit just like me!!! I have only seen one here and one
there caught so it hasn't started yet. It should start very soon. The ones that
have been caught were caught while bass fishing. The white bass have started so
the walleye shouldn't be far behind. I will keep you posted. If you are going to
try it I would do the following patterns below.
-- ripping a stick bait - rogue , rebel
or xrap. I would start late and the day and fish to after dark.
- spooning the points in 5 to 50 feet
of water.
- spilt shot a night crawler - this
pattern is working but catching lots of smaller sunfish and bluegills. If you
are catching these fish that is good because that is what the walleye are
feeding on and that's where you need to be fishing for them. They are anywhere
from 15 to 55 feet of water. I have been getting varying reports on depths.
- trolling - either flat trolling,
bottom bouncing or down rigging.
CRAPPIE - Haven't seen much activity
yet. I will keep you posted.
White River:
NOTHING EVER CHANGES ON THE RIVER
EXCEPT THE WATER LEVEL!!! THE FISHING IS ALWAYS GREAT!!
The river fishing has been great!! Check
out the 2009 picture page for photos of some big ones caught over the last
couple of weeks. Nothing new on the patterns. --- Worms, night crawlers, power
baits, salmon eggs, Count down Rapalas, spoons, rooster tails, jigs and just
about any other type of trout bait or pattern you have heard of.
Come visit our expanded bait and Tackle
department and good luck and good fishing to you all.

The Overall Picture:
Navigation conditions in Little River are near
normal elevation with moderate
current. 4 Foot Drawdown has ended. Exercise
common sense and caution during navigation due to floaters and debris in
Little River!
As of Monday 15 March, Largemouth Bass are
continuing a slow recovery from back to back cold fronts, with increased
day time highs, reduced low temperatures over the last week and the
surface temperature continues to climb into the high 50's. The lake
level has slowly fallen over the past week, and fish have pulled back
into creek channels and deeper water areas. Largemouth Bass are slighly
more aggressive with the improved day time highs and will continue to
improve over the next week to ten days. Females remain definitely in a
prespawn condition, and 2-3 pound males are being observed wanting to
build beds in flats adjacent to deeper water sanctuaries and creek
channels. Crankbaits, Rat-L-Traps, jigs, and lizards have been the go to
baits for Bass over the past week. Best bite is occurring during mid to
late day heating. We are seeing a few more Crappie and Bass fishermen
out this past week with improved weather and surface temperatures. A
few bass have been caught and released over the past two weeks over 10
pounds each!
As of Monday 15 March, lake level is now 0.46 feet
above normal pool and falling, with increased current in Little River.
Drawdown has ended and Millwood is being returned to normal pool. Main
lake and Little River's water surface temps are currently ranging from
approx 53ºF early, to 60ºF late, depending of course, on location and
time of day. Lake level on Millwood as of Monday 15 March is 259.66
feet and falling. Normal consv. pool is 259.20 feet. USACE
consistently holding gates at the dam, and as of Monday 15 March, with
13 tainer gates open at 2 feet, and for a total discharge of 10,599 CFS
(cubic feet/second). Tailwater levels are currently at 239.02 feet.
Clarity is heavy stain to muddy on main lake and river. The oxbows are
fair to moderate stain with approx 15" visibility. Millwood's next 4'
drawdown is currently scheduled to begin the week following 4th of July
Holiday 2010 through February 2011.
The Details:
Largemouth Bass: The past week has seen a slow,
continual recovery in bass feeding activities, with the warmer daytime
highs, increased nighttime lows and a continuing warming trend of lake
temperature. The best bite over the past week is occuring mid-day to
afternoon. Over the past week, with the lake level just slightly above
normal pool elevation, we are seening male bass returning to roam
shallow flats adjacent to primary and secondary creek channels, where
stumps and any remaining vegetation are located in a search for bedding
areas. The females continue to be in a prespawn condition and have been
staging in nearby creek channels or any nearby depressions or relative
depth changes. A very slow moving, 3/4 size, red Rat-L-Trap, jig, or
threadfin shad or crawfish patterned crankbait will randomly pull some
keeper bass out of these deeper spots in the creek channels by
deflecting off stumps or standing timber, but extremely slow is the most
effective method.
Slow rolling heavy, 5/8 to 3/4 oz spinnerbaits
(chartreuse / white or spot remover colors) or the larger size 3/4 oz
Toledo Gold or Millwood Magic colored Rat-L-Traps are the best options
for the stained water clarity in/around grass, along flooded creek
channel swings, large cypress trees, stumps, and grass. These are
taking a few males and prespawn females wanting to pull out of the
creeks into the flats. The Cordell Big O or XCalibur Fat Free Shad
Crank baits are still working to locate 16-20" male and prespawn
females, but the key word remains VERY SLOW for a solid keeper bass
bite. Jigs in black/blue/purple or Texas craw colors, and crankbaits
are still a good choice for finding a few keeper size bass on cypress
trees in deeper sections of the creek channels. Add rattles to your
jigs for sound attraction in the off-colored or stained water clarity.
The best Rat-L-Trap colors over the past week are
Red Shad, Millwood Magic, or Toledo Gold. The best crankbait colors
remain brown craw/orange belly, Foxy Shad or Root beer Float.
The clearest water areas available, typically up
river oxbows, have warmer temperatures than main lake or down river
locations. As away from the current of Little River during warmer,
sunny days are when bass maybe roaming shallow, during the mid day, in
warming shallow flats adjacent to deep creek channels is the best areas
to search for active fish. Slow moving suspending Cordell Red Fins, and
Salty Rat Tails, PMT Stix and Twitch Assassins on wacky-rigs continue to
work randomly for Bass, near remaining dead lily pad stems, hydrilla,
and pondweed, where the vegetation is growing in close proximity to
stumps. Texas rigged 6" lizards in blackberry, black neon, and
black/blue tail are taking some bass in creek channels and cypress
stumps.
The jig bite, continues to improve over the past
week, around cypress trees, knees, stumps and laydowns and best reaction
colors over the past several weeks continue to be Texas Craw,
black/blue/purple, or pumpkinseed/ chartreuse colors. These are taking
keeper size bass in the 4 to 8 lb class.
White Bass: White bass are beginning to
congregate near points and creek channel dumps into Little River above
Highway 71 bridge, concentrating up Little River. Rocket Shads,
Rat-L-Traps, and crankbaits are working, but the bite was random in the
oxbows of McGuire and Horseshoe. The annual migration spawn should
continue to heat up quickly, if the warming water/weather continues
throughout this week.
Crappie: are continuing to improve in the
oxbows around cypress trees, due to reduced lake and river flow with
continued clearing. We noted nice 3 pound slabs beginning to congregate
in the oxbows around cypress trees and being caught on black/chartreuse
jigs and Blakemore roadrunners over the past week with the warming water
temperatures. The upriver, oxbow bite away from current, is the best
location over planted brush, for the past several weeks. A few more
Crappie fishermen were out over the past week, due much improved weather
conditions.
Channel Cats: Channel Cats continue to bite
well in the remaining current of Little River. Blues and Channel cats
are biting good, best on cut shad, Charlie and chicken livers, by either
anchoring and tight-lining, or trot-lines, along Little River between
Jack's Isle and Mud Lake or on yo-yo's hung from cypress trees in the
oxbows over 10-15 feet depths.

Wear your Life Jacket and kill switch!! If you are suddenly or unexpectedly thrown from your boat, it could be your only chance of survival. Hypothermia can set in on an angler in water temps below 50 degrees in a matter of 15-20 minutes, unprotected against the elements. Use caution navigating Little River in low light conditions, SLOW DOWN, and pass friendly to other boaters! As always, careful watch for any random floaters and debris in Little River's current, and wearing your PFD and kill switch is a requirement!!

temperature is still in the mid to upper 40's.
We are still
behind on the water temp because of the cool weather. Nothing has
changed from last week except the night bite started to pick up this
week. For the fish that are hitting and you are not hooking up, try
throwing a grub back in. Chances are that they are walleye that are
hitting short.
