A half day guide trip for St. Patrick’s Day makes a wonderful memory. This is a special time for potential trophy fish. Catch and release is preferred in all areas, however all kept fish are cleaned to request, whole, skinned, or filleted by their guide. The bite has really been on and with the rising waters periodically during the day, comes the opportunity to try different tactics like rouges or countdowns. People have been catching Browns, Brooks, Cutthroat, and Rainbows all week. The lake level on 02/27/11 was 647.90, a little below normal pool and the same as it was last week. Normal pool is 654.00, This could finally be the start of the minimum flow project. With this variance in the generation at the Bull Shoals Dam you need to be aware and be prepared for different water conditions at all times. The number to call for generation report is 870-431-5311. A lot of real nice fish are being caught, so a guide is the best way to go. They know how to navigate in all water conditions and they know the holes where the fish are stacked. If you have questions call 870-445-4444. Always have personal flotation devices on board and in hazardous conditions they should be worn. Now that we are in range of normal pool we could see some variance in the generation levels. If your not familiar with the river get a licensed/insured guide or guide service for your fishing needs.

Fishing’s always good when your with Big Phil.

Don’t forget as of February 1, the catch and release areas change back and open for fishing. Be aware of the law.

Trophy Browns are being caught at night when the generators are shut down. Come see me for details on this method, J-9 jointed Rapalas, and topwater Rogues and Zara Pups have been doing very good on catching these. Please be aware of your trash. Don’t let it float down river. If you do see some please if possible pick it up. Thanks
