Ozark Sweetwater Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 February 1 marks the opening of the upper stretch of the White, that has been closed since November 1 for the brown trout spawning season. It also is the beginning of my favorite month for streaming fishing. I decided to not take any trips for the opener so I could hang out and fish with some friends, who were in town for Dally's Streamer Lovefest. To beat the crowds we launched at 12:01 AM to get some shots at some trophy browns before the swarm arrived in the morning.

gotmuddy Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 thanks for the report. I am curious how night fishing on the white is? Some of those shoals are bad enough during the day, I couldnt imagine at night. everything in this post is purely opinion and is said to annoy you.
Gavin Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 Just guessing, 17"? Long & narrow....Matt Tucker's BBQ prep looked good. Hope you got some, and fed it to that fish.
Members MattTucker Posted February 5, 2014 Members Posted February 5, 2014 Trigg, it was good to see you man. After talking with a few guys, I think we might try and make this a week long trip next year (or at least a few extra days for fishing). Not 100% sure I can swing it, but that is the goal heading in to 2015. The people are just too good not to hang around there any longer....besides, now I am just turning around and driving back down for this weekend. It was a helluva time. Will let you know how the night floats go this weekend, water dependent. The Ozark Chronicles The pursuit of Ozark trout on the fly.
Lancer09 Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 That's the stuff. Those Towee's are so frikken SWEET! Yeah they are. On that minimum flow is it floatable in a canoe you think?

I've seen people float it in a canoe. On min flow it would be fine but I personally would not want to be on it in a canoe at higher flows especially in the winter. http://ozarksweetwater.com

I'm not sure, we didn't really measure but we did land a few that were around 20 or so. You will catch some that are spawned out and skinny. Tucker's BBQ was too good to feed it to the fish. http://ozarksweetwater.com
