Fly Fishing From shore in a lake for trout?

Tuesday, August 24th, 2010
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 BeaverlakeĀ  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.

Weekend of lake trout fishing

Tuesday, June 22nd, 2010

Thought I’d post on this blog because from time to time I get to Arkansas to do a little trout fishing. I figured I’d share my last two weekends of lake trout fishing.


last Saturday I fished it for the first time two weekends ago and again had some great lake trout fishing as well as Pike. Pretty much stuck with two flies that I slow trolled off the edges of weed beds and reefs; deer hair gomphus bugs and bottom walkers. The lake trout were not big with the biggest being around 19″s. They do get a lot bigger in this lake.

They do give you a heck of a fight in the cold water and they love to do their alligator rolls.
Lot’s of wildlife abundant in the area with elk everywhere

Saw my first Marmot.

And got a chuckle from these little fox pups we stumbled upon.

All in all a great fly fishing trip and memories for a life time.
