White River - Freshwater Fishing Report
on the White, we have had low levels of generation in the morning and heavier generation in the afternoon. There has been no wadable water. The catch-and-release section below Bull Shoals Dam is closed until Jan. 31, 2014. The state park area is catch-and-release only for the same period. Night fishing also is prohibited in this area during this period. The hot spot has been the section below the state park. The best time to fish is early morning or late in the afternoon. The hot flies were Y2Ks, prince nymphs, zebra midges (black with silver wire and silver bead or red with silver wire and silver bead), pheasant tails, copper Johns, pink and cerise San Juan worms, gold ribbed hare's ears and sowbugs. Double-fly nymph rigs have been very effective. Try a small bead headed pheasant tail suspended eighteen inches below a brightly colored San Juan worm (hot fluorescent pink or cerise). Some anglers have been fishing large streamers on the heavy flows and having success. This requires heavy sink tip lines and heavy rods. The hot flies have been large articulated streamers in various colors.
