Fishing Report Sept 9, 2021

Guide Mike Winkler, operating Little Red River Guide Service (501-690-9166, 501-507-3688), says Little Red River generation schedule has been consistent with Southwestern Power Administration and the Corps of Engineers running 4 hours a day, usually starting around 2 p.m. and running till 6 p.m. through the week. The weekend’s generation schedule has been minimal, creating excellent wading opportunities on the entire river. With the lower flows, concentrate fishing the deep holes and oxygenated shoals. Stripping olive Woolly Buggers or Cracklebacks in the deeper holes has been effective. And nymphing under an indicator with these flies: pheasant tails, size 14-16; hare’s ear, size 14-16; sowbugs, size 14-18; midges, size 18.
