Members ARHeadhunters Posted June 14, 2014 Members Share Posted June 14, 2014 I caught this guy on a sex dungeon during the evening bump this week. The afternoon/evening higher flows will allow shots at streamer fishing and soon hoppers. I've had a few eager fish coming up to indicators and ants/beetles have taken a few fish.

Members ARHeadhunters Posted June 16, 2014 Author Members Share Posted June 16, 2014 Here's another good one from Saturday afternoon. We caught several smaller fish but this was a great fish. Caught on a black S. Dungeon out of Wildcat area.

XP 590 Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 Beautiful fish. I have a question about something, not to start an argument or anything, but I'm really curious. I see more photos of big browns on the White that seem long and lean, and more from Taneycomo that are fat like footballs. I've fished Taney alot, only once on the White. Is there a big difference in the food sources on those rivers? Scuds etc? I'm curious what other people's experience is. Again, I'm only speaking from posted photos that I've seen. Thanks for any info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for any info. I have noticed the same thing and my theory is that Taney has a large amount of relatively still water whereas the White is mostly swift flowing. Taney also has an incredible amount of scuds. http://flyinthesouth.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ARHeadhunters Posted June 23, 2014 Author Members Share Posted June 23, 2014 I see the round football shaped browns caught on the White too. They usually seem to hang out around the trout docks eating guts and carcasses all day. There was a 36lb brown caught in the last week that was closer to a basketball. I would imagine flow plays an important role too but there is always slack water somewhere on these rivers regardless of generation levels so more to do with where the fish chooses to spend its time feeding. Both of these fish were over 24" with the second one being 25.5" but no idea on weight.

Members Kcdangler Posted June 25, 2014 Members Share Posted June 25, 2014 I'm not trying to change topic but is it safe to canoe the Whie and at what level of flow is it unsafe if at all Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozark Sweetwater Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 I'm not trying to change topic but is it safe to canoe the Whie and at what level of flow is it unsafe if at all Thanks On minimum flows or low flows you would be ok but you cannot always predict the flows. I would not take a canoe on it, but that's just my opinion. http://ozarksweetwater.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ARHeadhunters Posted June 25, 2014 Author Members Share Posted June 25, 2014 I see canoes out on the river often but I wouldn't tempt the bigger flows. I've seen several Boy Scout groups on the White during the summer and it would be a nice float on the lower flows. I would stick to the upper end so you have more boat traffic in case you did get in trouble.
