Cotter White river report this week 9/6

[netboy]

Water has been fishable in the mornings and then big flows start at the dam around 7-8am with the current heat wave. That means water comes up around noon here in Cotter. I found a few protected areas to wade fish on the higher flows with flies and fishing has been good. Caught a few on hoppers against the bank and a few on a small parachute Adams but best combo has been a size 16 Y2k on a jig head with a ruby midge trailer. I did see a really nice brown this morning but he was more interested in the little rainbow I hooked. Didn't see him after that.

Here is a pretty rainbow on the midge (probably would have been a good snack for Babler's huge brown.. congrats to Bill on that one 😁)
