Twin Bridges / War Eagle

[1969Larson]

Surely somebody is wondering what the water looks like at Twin Bridges and War Eagle.  Here you go.  Saw a walleye and some white bass caught at TB.  No action at Two-dollar hole but the water looked great. Yes, there is still access there. The pay box is now right at the gate to the pasture.

Was there a huge crowd at TB?  I kinda want to take the kayak up there and fish.  I haven't been up that far in a while

Not bad at all.  I heard a few folks say that had done a great float from TB to Neil's Bluff on Saturday and slayed them... Black bass, white bass, crappie, walleye, and one striper mixed in.

Very cool.  Thanks for the info

How many miles is TB to Neil's bluff.

How does the pay box at WE work? 

I was out there and the gate was closed. Never been out there and didnt want to trespass...

Also, how do you access those shoals at TB?

Thanks!

just put 3 bucks in the box, open gate drive through and close gate.  drive down and fish.  They run it on a honor system I think  cuz I've never see them checking the gate.

I'll ball park 5 miles, given the bends and such?

Maybe a nice, easy 3 hour deal, unless you really get into a school and stop to fish more.

Of course, if we get all the rain we're supposed to, and The White River decides to remind us how persnickety she can sometimes be - might just take 20 minutes

Park under the bridge at the boat ramp. There is a trail that goes off along the edge of the field, through the woods, and comes out on the shoals right where Richland Creek joins the White.  If you don't see the trail, ask dude selling crawdads.

Thank Jolicious, I really hope we don't get flooded again.
