Wading At 1-3 Units

[Poke 'Em]

I'm thinking about making my first trip to the White tomorrow. Is there anywhere besides Rim Shoals that has wadeable water at 1-3 units?

Thanks in advance.

On one unit there are several spots, Wildcat Shoals, Bull Shoals Dam Catch and Release, and Cotter. On three your options are severely limited to maybe Bull Shoals. You would be limited to hugging the bank.

I have always wndered why people think they have to have a boat to be successful at the White River during generation. I was down there a while back and had some good success bank fishing at White Hole when all eight generators were pulling. I wasn't able to actually wade, but fishing off the bank did well enough. Off course I wasn't fly fishing, so that could change things. I was told on fishing reports on the internet that no one was doing much good off the bank, but I decided to try it anyway, and I didn't have any problems pulling some decent trout out.
