Be sure to clean your line after using it in the yard. Dirt and dust get on the line and make it not float well and not shoot well.

Snagging for spoonbill would drive you crazy. It’s shoulder to shoulder with guys slinging 8 oz. sinkers with treble hooks the size of your fist. Fights even break out over it.

Dude I don't even like bait fishermen anymore...I saw that I'd probably have a heart attack.

Anyone have experience with cast nets? Looking to try and get shad for catfishing this spring. Recommendations? Areas to try? Any information would be appreciated

Speaking of Fly fishing, I'm heading to the White in Arkansas in two weeks for our annual February trout trip. We caught fish right and left last year and the weather was great. I bought some "skulpin head" weights that I'm gonna use to tie some gnarly sculpin flies in the hope of catching a big brown this year. Last years biggest was 20 inches.

It’s a big part of why I don’t do it anymore. That and you snag one spoonbill and you’re done. That's a lot of hassle and expense for uh fish.

They put out a memo this year that the horn they use for the dam flow opening up is being tested all the time. Told us not to pay attention to it. If you hear what used to be the warning horn for them opening up one of the gates, you no longer need to head to higher ground. You can just keep on fishing. Good luck! |

Don't listen to that guy. I think Papa John's bought the siren. They're just sounding the "hot pizza" alarm. Don't you worry. What's the worst that could happen? (Just to clarify to new fishermen, or new to the White River fishermen: These large dams have great fishing below them, but when they need to let water through to adjust levels, it can cause rapid and death-inducing floods no matter how good a swimmer you are. Therefore, they sound an alarm/siren/horn to let people know that "it's a comin". Ignore the alarm at your peril) |

several years ago we were fishing on the norfork branch and I had a buddy that hadn't been there before. he waded across the river. I noticed the water was rising slowly and yelled over to him, but he didn't listen and just kept fishing. He ended up having to swim across with his rod in his mouth and ended up about 500 yards down river.

I've had a fly rod for several years and have never caught a trout on it. I can be right next to my buddy, and he'll be catching the shit out of them. Even with the same fly tied on. I just can't get the hang of it. I have no problem casting for the most part. I guess my presentation just sucks. But I try it every year, get frustrated and go back to my ultra-light.
