Catching on y2ks and pink worms below hoppers. The leaves are falling and that messes things up. River is very low and clear! Need rain badly.

We got out this morning about 8am and I think they may have been working on the hatchery. Water levels had dropped 2 ft from the day before, lol hard way to get down and already a low river. River is getting to low for a drift boat, using my Nrs slipstream raft does the trick. We had to weave around the boulders, but made out just fine. Ya can't turn off the Spring River, so flow was back to normal by about 10am. No they did not bite well with the low water. They were biting

We did get some much needed rain this week, but not enough to affect the river. It remains low and clear. Still catching bows and bass. Most days we get 1 large and 1 smallie, a type of sucker and plenty of rainbows. Today as a plus we did catch a cute little brown. Olive wolly was hot in the front and hopper dropper in the back with y2k dropper. On those bright sunny days hoppers work great with a y2k or nymph dropper. Early in the morning and on those overcast days a simple

This cold snap will get the big fish moving. And dang, it was in the 30s here this morning. Caught a few on olive, but ended up with y2k catching the most. Was a really nice morning, then the wind picked up and that was not fun.. Looks like special regulations on all the rivers except for Spring River. This river has not been stocked below dam 3 since the flood. Really hoping they stock soon. I have been here over 20 years and never experienced what we are going through th

She sure hates squirrels now...

It rained hard for a bit on Saturday evening into the night. Less than 2 inches here. River was stained a bit this morning making for tougher fishing. A y2k on bottom did the trick. Just a half day today and damg it was cold out this morning. No hopper eats today. River remains very low with more rain needed. Since they haven't stocked since April the public areas can be tough. I'm hoping a cold spell will get the big fish moving. Needs to be cold for about a week. Today

I guess its official, Agfc has made a post that there will be special restrictions on the trout fishers in Arkansas due to the hatchery flooding and issues with federal hatcheries. The Spring River has not been stocked since April before the flood. There are still fish in the river but it would be a good time for cstch and release at least until stocking resumes and they get to big for the river. Just saying we have always and will always catch and release smallmouth bass an
