I am just getting tired of hauling my fishing gear making multiple trips to carry gear to some of my favorite fishing spots? I also feel I might be missing some great trout fishing areas due to having to lug gear and fishing equipment to prime hard to find/great spots. Would an all in one cart be a good idea to carry your gear?… and looking for suggestions. Finally, I am not as young as I use to be and worried about slipping/falling when hauling gear in remote locations to fish.
Ideas?

Quick question. Is there a color spinners web source for the different seasons for trout fishing? I’ll be heading out to do some trout fishing this weekend and I was thinking about using salmon eggs and spinners? I’ll be fishing medium fast streams, and the White River. I have always been a bit puzzled on type of spinner used in different times of the year. I am thinking it’s important to know because of fly hatch?
Thanks,
Gordon

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

It’s just too hot to go trout fishing so I switched and going bullheads because my local lake is just thick with them. I also prepared some doughbait that I blended with small crappie and think this world be a great bait to use. Anyways, what baits do you think would be effective catching them. Also, time, fishing line, and what hooks should I use?

Thanks for the email and yes I do have a simple question regarding a good compact fishing rod. I’ll be trout fishing this weekend/summer on small rivers, lakes and ponds, plus going after bass, and trout like I said. I just find a conventional rod to be really awkward to deal with while sitting in a kayak. Any kayak anglers here want to flip a newbie some advice?

Wet flies and dry flies? Another Newbie here to ask a question abut fly fishing. I am going to give fly fishing a go and try my luck at some trout fishing this summer. The standard I know is to use a fly & bobber. If one of you fly fisherman can tip off a newbie on the difference between dry and wet flies? Also, what should I be using here in Arkansas during the summer?…….any suggestions on what type or color?
What size do you recommend?
