First trip

[whatnext]

I've never made it to the white and trying to plan a trip.  Would I be ok with a 17ft aluminum mod V 70hp? Also looking for a good wade access (if possible). My son really wants to try wade fly fishing. Thanks for any advice

You will be fine with that boat with the current flows, but no so fine if we start getting lower water. I heard they are predicting lower flows starting around the end of September. But then again minimum flow is great for wading at all the accesses.

I'm not thinking about late spring early summer next year time frame. If the flows are too low for the boat that's fine.  Are there any nice water front campgrounds you could wade fish at?

Bull Shoals White River State Park has the best wading access on low water and is the nicest campground on the river.

Also Denton Ferry RV park has good wading access on low water.
