White river fishing this weekend..

[netboy]

I woke up Saturday morning and saw the White river was at minimum flow and scheduled to be the same thru Monday. I mistakenly thought the river had dropped since the lake was near power pool level. I  got the wading gear together and headed to Roundhouse shoals. Fishing was great with lots of rainbows, a few browns and one cuttie. Same thing Sunday morning and I took my wife out and we caught a bunch on surface flies.

Then this morning... they still had the low water forecasted, but that didn't happen. Found out the Corps had dropped the White and Norfork due to an accident at Batesville where a vehicle had run into the river and the authorities were trying to recover the body and the truck. They did recover the truck and the body Sunday... RIP to the family.

So to update... I went to Norfork Ackerman access this morning, which was scheduled to be down until noon and then about 9ish here comes the water... Fishing was good until the water came up with the a sulphur crackleback.

Oh well no problem.. I saw the water coming up and yelled at a couple of guys on my way out to warn them.  

I guess tomorrow will be anybody's guess....

They look to be close to reaching the top of power pool.
