Fishing Journal: 20110728: Arkansas River above Buena Vista
Man oh man, what a great day of fishing. I have never done well on the Arkansas. I had assumed that the flows would be too high to do well this time. Boy was I wrong. The river was totally manageable. My sense, and this is as likely wrong as right, is that the river…
