THE BIG III

​White river

The White River has 80 miles of declared trout water and is home to some of the largest Brown Trout in the country, thousands of beautiful Rainbows every mile and some awesome Cutthroats. The water below Bull Shoals Dam is cold and clear even during generation. The dam has 8 generators which are run for flood control and power demand. A minimum flow is used when the generators are not running to keep the water cold and oxygenated. Don’t be intimidated by the higher flows as it pushes predator fish into easier to access places allowing for great hopper and streamer fishing. When the water is low it makes for a super fun day drifting down the river with a little more of a relaxed feel.

​norfork river

The Norfork River is a grand total of 4.6 miles long and is considered by many to be the princess of tailwaters. Norfork is home to river born Bonneville Cutthroat, as well as thousand Spot Cutties making it the place to be if you are looking for Cutthroat Trout. The river is also loaded with huge Brown Trout, Brook Trout and some of the best Rainbow Trout in the state. This short fishery is perfect for a drift boat especially during times of low generation when it is otherwise inaccessible to long boats. The middle of the river is all catch and release as are we.

​​DRY RUN CREEK

 This little gem is one of the most amazing resources this country has. At 3/4 of a mile long, this fishery is small yet powerful. The best part about it? It’s just for kids and the mobility impaired. This creek receives flow from Norfork Fish Hatchery and is loaded with gigantic Browns, Rainbows and Cutthroats. Bugs are thick and plentiful and you can fool these fish in many ways, whether that be on top or sub surface. If you have been wanting to teach one of the youngsters in your life the ways of a fly rod there is no better place than dry run creek to make that happen.
