    Mid May Madness

    Monday, May 17, 2010, 09:42 PM CST [General]

       What a great Spring and early Summer on the Little Red this year.  I suppose we were due after the previous two Springs when we had heavy flooding and high water for several months.  The Caddis hatch this year has been fantastic, and so has the fishing. 

    A video of the fish taking Caddis:

    Good times all around.  Let's hope the party continues.

    Spring Fun

    Sunday, April 11, 2010, 08:53 PM CST [General]

      A good White Bass run with fairly good streamer fishing on higher flows was the way April started.  The flows on the Little Red are down now and the caddis are hatching.  April should only get better as it goes along.  Here are some highlights from the end of March into the first 10 days of April.
