White River Fishing Report...
Since 1995 - For Twelve Years !!



Mar 23, 2007 - Apr 6, 2007

Typical water generation the past two weeks has been one to two generators around the clock for a week. The following week generation has been shut down around the clock. Generation is currently shut down, but is probable in the near future.

Whether there is generation or not, fishing has been excellent. Big browns have been hitting some Shad, Sculpins, and live worms. Lures such as the Countdown Rapalas, Buoyant Spoons, and Rogues are also landing the brown trout.

Rainbows are attracted to the Red Worms, Night Crawlers, and Wax Worms. Yellow or White Power Bait are working very well. Combination of worms and eggs will help land many fish. Lures that are working for rainbows are rubber worms, spoons and Mepps.

Fly Fisherman are catching many fish on Bead-Head Nymphs, Bead-Head Wooly Buggers, San Juan Worms, Zebra Midges, and Egg Patterns.


Good luck with your fishing and take a buddy along to enjoy fishing also
and to make memories of a life time.

"Finish every day and be done with it.
You have done what you could;
Some blunders and absurdities crept in;
Forget them as soon as you can.

Tomorrow is a new day;
You shall begin it serenely and
With too high a spirit to be encumbered
With your old nonsense."
