Dave and I camped on the Norfork recently and got into some great dry fly fishing! The crane flies were coming off and the trout were definitely looking up! One of several nice cutthroats we caught on dry flies. Dave fishing in the early morning fog. The fishing was great...and so was the eating! A nice Norfork rainbow. We also hooked several nice browns! We were just a brook trout shy of a grandslam! Cutthroats love to eat dry flies!

The dry-fly fishing at Taneycomo was great today! My buddy Loren and I drove up there early to get in a half day of fishing, and it was well worth the trip! We caught several feisty rainbows on Turk’s Tarantulas and various beetle patterns—black seemed to be their favorite color!

There has been lots of low, wadeable water below most of the White River System Dams over the past few weeks, so Theresa and I took a day to wade in below Bull Shoals Dam, and we hammered the trout on everything from miniscule midge pupa to huge hoppers! If you get a chance to head to any of our area tailwaters, it’s well worth the trip—the fishing is on fire! One of the many feisty browns we caught on black foam ants! Revived and ready for release. Thanks for playing!
