Spring Fun Continues

And the fun continues in the beautiful Heber Springs area. I had several more great days chasing the whites, but the last time I went out all the females were gone and the males were all milting, which means the spawn is coming to a close. The Good news is the Little Red has been on fire. Caddis have been coming off all day. I fished clients both Saturday and Sunday. Saturday the Corp gave us a solid 15 hours of no generation. Saturday morning was awesome. We broke out the trusty double nymph rigs. By lunch they had easily caught 85+ fish. We stopped for lunch and had some leftover duck from the night before. It seemed to really hit the spot. After lunch we continued to move our way down river. Twice we drifted through one of my favorite low water shoals and caught 9 fish each drift. The third drift 7. They couldn't keep the fish off. I asked Rollins and Jacob if they had any interest in trying out some of my streamer techniques, maybe sacrificing the numbers in the afternoon but looking to turn a big brown. Within the first 35 minutes of throwing the big bugs, they had each boated a 23 inch or plus brown. The afternoon continued to be awesome, boating two more big yellow bellies in the same size range. It was a monumental day for the father and son.
