Definitely not crappie

Last week we met my brother and sil in Calico Rock, AR. We trout fished the cotter/Norfolk area of the white river for 3 days. We do not fly fish just light spinning gear while drifting. No big fish but 2 lbers can put up a struggle in the current, especially when they break water after a long cast. Amazing how much cooler it is floating down 55 degree water.

Good way to stay cool . :fish

I love the white river floats going the 26th-27th to norfork can't wait no other way to beat the heat and fish

I too love the white river it's just a beautiful place to spend time. I try to deer hunt via the river every year. Richard, did you guys eat any of your trout? I used to trout fish the Little Red River a lot when I was growing up and have eaten many of them. But I have to say they are way down list of preferred fish for me to eat.

Looks like a good time! That water sure does stay cold.

Bobby they are way down on our list too. Like to catch them but no we did not eat any.

Love that place and have really good luck just bank fishing. Thanks for the post.

Attachment 350326Man I love that part of the river. My wife has a cousin who retired with the AR Game & Fish Commission. Their backyard has been Steamboat Shouls on the river since 2002. As life goes, their grandchildren are now in Albuquerque and they spend time to and from. Now his place and his sisters that is right beside his is up for sale😢. My wife and I have always been given access whether they were home or out of town.

I’m almost 99% sure I recognize the bluff pictured with the white in it. Is it 3/4- a mile or so up the White the mouth of the North Fork? I may be wrong but if I’m not, I know that stretch well and fish it a lot.

No that is not were we stayed. The Picture was taken at a house just a little up river from the bridge at calico rock. However we did fish the stretch of the river you are talking about and did real well around that area.

Crappie hunter that would be nice to have access to a place on the river.
