Taking the yak to Broken bow and going to float the river. Thinking about doing a short 4 miler. Trout are there I know, but I'm interested in the smallmouth, LMB, and catfish. Anyone fished for them there? Staying @ Beavers Bend State Park on the river. If I do fish for trout; will small spinners work OK? I don't really flyfish much.

superdupers work good. So do panther martins. IMO inline spinners are the way to go.

Love that place, be sure to post up a report,we are headed back once it cools off and are going to try some fly fishing for the trout and definitely do some more kayaking

put in at the beginning of zone two. fish on the sides of the bank waders cant get to and throw big olive wholly buggers and crawfish patterns. ill be up there in 2 or 3 weeks and floating in my one man pontoons..... a buddy called me two days ago and caught 4 five lb trout plus a bunch of 15's (inches). said a couple small mouth bass would follow him around in the boat. he said he caught about 4 of them i think @ 3 lbs. use Florocarbon.
