Time on the River

Time well spent is time with my dad fishing on the River.

This is from a different day and it's hella blurry but I wanted to show what we are working with here. Rainbow trout in both hands but one is a tailwater goat and the other a slot keeper filet.

Fishing the bill shoals walk in.

My dad waded out to the middle of the river and found a nice spot to fish the edge of a rest spot for the fish called an eddy.

A beauty of a brown trout which was my first fish of the day and got me hype to go back soon.

Arkansas river systems don't normally hold trout but with the introduction of hydro electric systems they began stocking the tail waters below each dam with trout.

They are still introducing new species such as the Bonneville cutthroat in hopes that some will find this natural habitat suitable for reproduction. The only species that really hasnt taken hold so far is the rainbow trout so my family and I love to just go catch the heck out of them.

We always throw back any species that is reproducing like the German brown trout and the cutthroat.
