Always fished further down river, but fishing this area here in a few weeks. Any tips on really good areas? Will be fishing out of a flat bottom. Any help is appreciated. Usually use zig jigs.

Thanks. Think we may head to a new area. Rainbowriverresort area. Thanks again

Need a place that had lodging and boat rental. Near cedar wood lodge if possible. Not sure if i posted in correct forum. Thanks

Thanks. Sounds like you guys have walleyes. Big fan of walleyes

Myself and couple buddies coming up in two weekends. Staying at a lodge by the ferry. Renting a pontoon boat. Any advice on where to fish and what method? Be on bikes, so will be catch and release. Troll or straight down? Stripers would be nice, but anything would be fun. Thanks for any help.

Thanks for the advice on Zig JIgs. Just got back from the fishing trip. Used mainly CD5's and such first day. Caught many, but seemed pretty small compared to usual. 2nd day I put on a Zig Jig. Once I got use to the method of how I wanted to cast and retrieve, it was game on. Fish after fish, some pretty nice ones, no huge trout but very nice fish. Within hour I had the three other guys in my boat with a Zig Jig on. I will see how they work this winter in a stocked stream here in Kansas. Thanks again for the advice and for the Zig Jig's, I will be making another order

What weight is the jig you use? Thats what i am wondering about. I use 4 lb test

Spinning reel. Wanna meet the guy who can use a bait caster out there. Sorry i should have clarified

First off all thanks for all your guys help the last few years. End of july me and my buds will be doing our annual motorcycle trip to the white and fish for a few days. Guys i fish with dint fish a ton so they drag powebait and have fun and catch a ton. I on other hand lure fish. Thanks to you guys i have used the rapala countdown lure last 2 years and have had a blast. My question is i having been reading a lot from you guys about zig jigs and PJ's. Can i use these jigs with my open face rod and reel? What size and color will I need? I know a lot depends on water running. Any help tho would be great before i place an order. Thanks in advance

Thanks, exactly what a was looking for.

got a great map from this site a few years ago for my annual trip, but now it wont open up... Anyone have a river mar showing different locations like redbud shoals cotterrainbow hole wildczt shoals, etc. Would bemuch appreciated

Hey thanks a lot for all the help. Finally found a great google map with all of those spots. Is the river a little tougher fishing when it runs like this? Sorry all I do is walleye fish, but slowly learning about trout. I like to lure fish, but my buddy really only likes to drift down dragging powerbait. I also imagine you fish with a pretty small mepps? I usually use a 2 but again thats for large mouth. Thanks again for the help

When you talk about in line spinners are you talking about mepp's and those like that? Is there a place i can go to get a map of the river with all those spots you talked about on it. Only map I found was on rim shoals resort map and I couldnt find all of those spots.

Hey, thanks for all the help so far, when I got the tackle suggested. Will be there this sat and sun. to fish. Was wondering how the fishing is going down there? Any spots better than others right now? Thanks again for the help,

Hey taxidermist, I usually use little cleos (small spoons) for trout, do those work in this area also for trout?

Thanks for the responses. Will not be going till late July, so hopefully water will be lower. Is the area around the lodge just as good as other areas around for trout fishing or should I venture up or down a little for better fishing? Thanks again for the help. Will book the room as soon as I wake up from working the midnight shift.

me and a buddy go up each year to the area and stay at a cabin and trout fish a few days. Wanted to stay at a new location this year. ANyone ever stay at cedarwood lodge before or heard anything about it. Is there good trout fishing in the area from a jon boat. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for any help given. Thanks

Thanks for all the replys so far. That really helps me out a ton. I picked the brain of a trout fisher I know who has fished in the area but with a fly rod. He gave me the same advise you guys have. I will go to the tackle shop first thing when I get there to get the right equipment. Really looking forward to the trip, we always have such a great time in your area. Hoping this year we could hook one with half way decent size. Thanks again it was much appreciated

Need a little help. This will be the third year me and a buddy visit the white river on motorcycles to enjoy the scenery and trout fish. Trying a different spot this year, rim shoals. Usually at the other spots we just float with corn or power bait and have a blast catching trout. Questions are this, 1. Corn would work the same in this spot I imagine? Also are there any lures, jigs, etc that I could use to catch some trout? Bringing my own rod and reel this year, know it should be clear line, but is 6 pound test too heavy? Any help would be great, sorry for the dumb questions but use to fishing for Walleye and Bass, so I am a little ignorant on trout. Thanks in advance for any help
