White River

(Updated 12-11-2013) Berry Brothers Guide Service (870-453-2424) said conditions have been treacherous. Several docks sunk under the weight of the ice and snow. Access roads and ramps were coated with ice and snow. Cancelled trips, stuck vehicles and jack-knifed trailers were the order of the day. There have been very few anglers and most were fishing streamers like sex dungeons and circus peanuts with limited results. Other hot flies were Y2Ks, prince nymphs, zebra midges (black with silver wire and silver bead or red with silver wire and silver bead), pheasant tails, ruby midges, pink and cerise San Juan worms, and sowbugs.
