Winter Road Trip

Is driving to the Spring worth me making a three hour drive on Monday, or has the water been blown out? If so, can anyone recommend a wading access point? Thanks. -R

Spring river is a nice trout river, kinda a sleeper really, it gets so much press from the wild canoe groups of the summer. You'll have it to yourself this time of year. Two of my favorite walk in spots on the river at Dam 3 access at the hatchery, you can fish the water as it comes out of the hatchery, or walk down the park and fish some nice shoals on the big water. I usually flyfish here, very good for that. My next choice would be Bayou access, which is on the other side of the river, you have to drive to Mammoth spring, there will be signs that will get you there after you do threw the downtown part. Good flyfishing water there as well. There are also other places, but those are two i'm familiar with. Personally I like the Dam 3 access alittle better.

Thanks for the response. I ended up fishing the LRR instead.
