New Years Eve

[taxidermist]

We headed out this AM about 9:00. Picked the boat up and went to put in at Rim Shoals for a run up river.

After the rain, thunder and lightning and the storm sirens in both Gassville and Cotter. We decided to hit the river

There was very very little water running. Crooked Creek was running higher at Pyatt than White at Rim Shoals.

We managed to get over Redbud Shoals and on up above the houses but that was it.

We fished about 5 hours catching a bunch of bows, several nice browns nothing over 18 inches. But many fish so it was a good day. While using my White River Wonder stick, I was seeing Suckers following the lure. I thought at first it was just curiosity. But when I finally hit of a retrieve they liked I was catch suckers on artificial lure!

We left about 3:30 after having a great New Years Eve on the river.

End of Rim Shoals ramp was at the water, huge drop off. Several smaller 4X4s dropped their trailers over the end of the ramp and had problems, getting stuck when trying to pull out.

Check out the ramp before you launch!!!
