I brought my Drift Boat but didn't use it. I fished at the lower end of Rim Shoals, Cotter Access and Roudhouse area. I think those are the names it was my first time. As long as you had a good drift I would get a strike.

No signifigant water running the 3 days I was there. landed well over 100 fish the 3 days. mostly on size 16-18 scuds. Didn't land a trophy but had about a dozen over 14", and a couple over 16". The fish seem to be really fat and are not too leader shy. It was my fist time at the White and will be back. I fished around Cotter, and enjoyed my trip.

Put in at Kelly Shoals. I tied on a size 6 Black Stonefly and a size 8 golden/brown stone fly dropper with a couple a weights. Caught a 12" brown my first drift. My 3rd drift landed a very fat 22" rainbow! It was one of the fattest fish I have ever caught in MO. Caught another small rainbow and moved on. The flow was pretty good and didn't have much trouble in my drift boat. I caught about 15 fish over the 2 days but my 3rd drift landed my most memorable. As I was slowing drifting, I didn't see a ton of fish but the ones I did see were very big. Many 20"+ fish.

I am going to be in West Plains for X-mas with my 14.8' drift boat. Can the river be floated without too much trouble with the current water levels?
