    Default Trout Virgin


    Well, I haven't caught a trout in my life yet, but all that's about to change!

    Before sun-up tomorrow morning I'll be heading down to Heber Springs, Arkansas and meeting a buddy of mine from VA and we're gonna tear 'em up on the Little Red, (I hope!)

    They've been getting some rain so I don't know if they'll be pulling water out of Greers Ferry Lake or what that will do to the bite but...hopefully conditions will be excellent.

    Becareful going down there. There has been alot of rain down in Arkansas and they are saying that we might get 3 to 5 inches here in Springfield tomorrow.

    I have to say trout are fun to catch. They just smell bad when you cook them.

    Joe, been to Heber Springs a couple times and you will love it. Great setting to fish in. HOWEVER, be VERY careful the roads are twists and turns like nothing you have seen I'm sure. Arrive safe and have a good trip

    Default Update

    Well, the weather has been incredible...I know y'all are gettin' rain now but there's sunny skies ahead!

    We both limited out yesterday and today. Hope to do it again tomorrow. They have a slot limit here...fish betwen 16-24 have to be released. The closest we've gotten is 15 7/8ths :D (mine, by the way) Hope to get a 24+!

    Slippery little bastages....looks like I got a death grip on em!

    And Jack, you were right, that US-65 is some winding highway once you get into Arkansas! Fun to drive but it sucked driving it in the rain! Glad it cleared up right away once I got close to Heber Springs.

    Great place down here. We're at Lindsey's Rainbow Resort. Pretty dang nice facilities they got going here! Might try renting a boat tomorrow.

    More fish to come!
