I have a couple of new colors of the 606 jerkbait that is deadly on rainbows and browns. The baits are 3 1/4" long- 1/4oz and dive about 3 ft deep.. On low to medium flow of water this is had lure to beat. Dusky striped shiner is a new color that mimics the shiner that is staple food for trout in the White River system. Brook tout is another new color I have had good success with. Sculpin and Rainbow are avaiable at this time also.I have been a wildlife artist for 30 years and paint these like I do fish mounts. $9.99 each with $3.50 shipping for the first one and no extra shipping if you want more than one. I accept Paypal and Venmo.

I am in the market for some new trout reels. I mainly throw jigs and small crankbaits. What reels have you guys been the most pleased with?

Any gurus have opinions about fishing the White the first of next week. They seem to holding water, don't really want to be there if they open the floodgates.

I heard that. Thanks, we cancelled

Making an annual trip to the white next week. Never fished 20,000+ cfs. Any suggestions from you local guys on improving my odds on catchings some fish. I can travel to any area to fish

I have a few extra crankbaits in sculpin and baby rainbow made up if anyone is interested. They float up very slowly to stay in the strike zone longer. THe baits are $15 each with $4 shipping and handling. I will combine shipping on multiple lure orders. Paypal accepted.

I had the opportunity last week when my son had a few days off from grad school to take him and my wife to the White. The chocolate milk coming out of the buffalo didn't help my feelings when we got there, but the small mouth seemed to love it. we caught hundreds of trout and around 40 smallmouth, one of which my wife caught was 19 1/2 " Can't wait for the chance to go again.

Looks like you got it dialed in duckdoty. Thanks for the pics

Thanks Ham and Johnsfolly for taking time to post those pics for me. There is a wide variety in coloration. This will really help.

I have searched google trying to narrow down sculpins color in Taney and the white river. It looks like the banded and ozark sculpin are native to the area. I live 8 hours away and went to Taney the first time last year, it is a great place. I am not familiar with the creature. I assume it changes shades according to water color and it's bottom surroundings so it could be shades of green or brown. Wondering if anyone could give me some guidance or had any pictures of sculpin that were local. I painted these by a picture from the internet. Thanks

I think you were launching at Buffalo Ciy when we were taking out one day last week. If that was you in the black boat, That's a nice rig. Congrats on hammering those hogs. Where did you catch the hybrid or striper that is in the picture?

The Brown looks like a little submarine. Sounds like you were wearing the trout out. Fun times

Beautiful fish. Love those colors

Had my first chance to really fish the white for the first time on a family trip. We were able to fish 4 mornings this week. Caught 4 browns: 2-16", a 25" and a 28". We had a blast catching over 300 rainbows on the 4 outings. Most were caught on jigs and the last morning found us nymphing for a change.The white is a heck of a fishery. Thanks to Ham for his input and advice prior to our trip. This post has been promoted to an article

Maybe I am not looking in the right place. " Watch Phil’s One Cast for daily updates on the bite and water conditions . " All I can find when I go on one cast is stuff from 2016. Any suggestions
