Hey everyone,

I’ve been enjoying the summers in Arkansas great outdoors and thought I’d post a question for my fellow razorbacks. I will be staying at a cabin on Beaverlake  for a couple of weeks in September and have not fished it before so I could use some advise. I’ll be using a 5w fly rod with floating line but need a bit of guidance for the best way to catch a lake trout. I have chest waders so I can wade, but what would be extremely helpful is to know what type of structures to keep an eye out for? Also, what flies I should be using in September to try and catch some of the trout. I will also be fishing below the dam if that helps with ancillary advice or flies.

Little lost on this video …someone want to clue me in on what all the funnin’ is about?

Afternoon, I found this blog on Google and me and the family are going to move from Idaho to Arkansas, Beaver Lake area in September. So my question is, what kinds of fish or fishing is popular in late September early October? My family is looking forward to the move because it is truly a beautiful area and your feedback would sure be appreciated.

Regards,

Mike Miller

Hello all, and nice to see an Arkansas blog! My family I are heading to the White River in mid September to do some camping and trout fishing. I am gearing up and needed know what size line would be needed and definitely need a good technique for that time of year? We will not be fly fishing and know that trout spook easily there. I was/ am thinking possibly a 4lb test is best but I am open for suggestions? Could any fellow Arkansans want to tip another angler on what to use and not?

We will not be hiring a guide

Here is a great video of summer trout fishing on the White River near Calico Rock, Arkansas. Get’s me all excited watching it.

Well I am moving to Arkansas and wanted to know what to expect? I live in the in San Diego, California and my parents who are doctors have been offered a good job in the Beaver Lake (Rogers). I just would like to know what will be the biggest changes I will encounter when I move to Arkansas? I am 16 years old that likes to ocean fishing and of course spending time at the beach. Although, I am looking forward to trout/fly fishing the white river, but I am not looking forward to the move or any change.
