Great morning fishing the Arkansas Beaver Tailwaters! Fishing was fair on Black or Brown Zebra Midges, Pheasant Tail Nymphs, Egg Patterns and Red San Juan Worms. The wind sure made it feel colder than it actually was with a pretty constant wind from 10 to 15 mphs. I was fooled into thinking it was going to beContinueContinue reading “Beaver Tailwaters Jan 17th, love the Pheasant Tail Nymph!”

Three for Three Fishing
Started the year out great with 3 straight days of fishing. I was able to get out for a few hours of fishing the Beaver Tailwaters each day to start this year. I was going to go for four, but my friend ended up sick this morning and with snow, cold weather and strong wind andContinueContinue reading “Three for Three Fishing”
Almost Got Skunked, Jan 2nd
Another great day to hit the water for the New Year. Fishing was a little tough this morning. I only managed to land one fish on a Rootbeer Midge and that was after I had tried nearly everything in my fly box. When I got to the Beaver Tailwaters around 9:30am, I found they hadContinueContinue reading “Almost Got Skunked, Jan 2nd”
Happy New Year 2015
Nice cold day for fishing. Great way to start the New Year! Big winter storm pushing our way today, but I still managed to get out and get a couple hours fishing in this afternoon on the Beaver Tailwaters. The fish were pretty active on the surface, but I haven’t figured out how to getContinueContinue reading “Happy New Year 2015”

Good midges were Black with silver, Black with copper, White with red thorax, Blue dun, Purple, and Rootbeer. Sub-micro jigs in white and olive were productive as well. Caught around 30 fish in about 4 hours. WeatherContinueContinue reading “Beaver Tailwaters Dec 27th”

Then the wind picked up and the cloud cover came back and the temp dropped. Didn’t get real cold, but it did aContinueContinue reading “Beaver Tailwaters Dec 26th”
Beaver Tailwater Dec 21
Another nice morning fishing the Beaver Tailwaters. Conditions were same as yesterday, low 40’s, overcast, but with a very occasional wind. The wind would pick up for a few minutes every once in awhile and man did it get cold for those short period of times. I tried fishing the stretch up from the Betrand boatContinueContinue reading “Beaver Tailwater Dec 21”
Beaver Tailwaters Dec 20th
Nice morning fishing the Beaver Tailwaters. Temp was in the low 40’s, but felt very comfortable as there wasn’t any wind. Overcast all morning with a misting fog for the first hour. Fish were a little finicky this morning, didn’t really seem to key on anything to strong. Black, Purple and Olive Zebra Midges did fairlyContinueContinue reading “Beaver Tailwaters Dec 20th”

After taking a couple weekends off for vacation with the family, it was a great day fishing today on my home turf of the Beaver Tailwaters. The temp was a nice and cool 45 degrees with a on and off again strong breeze from the north. Fished just down from the upper handicap access to theContinueContinue reading “Fishing Beaver Tailwaters Dec 6, 2014”
Cold Day Fishing – Beaver Tailwaters Nov 14
With snow in the forecast and the temperature starting at a frigid 27 degrees, that was still not going to stop me from getting a little fly fishing in this Saturday morning. I thought about fishing many times throughout the work week and on my way from work Wednesday evening I had even convinced myself thatContinueContinue reading “Cold Day Fishing – Beaver Tailwaters Nov 14”
