A favorite trouting place when the Norfork, Little Red, The White Rivers m, tailwaters in Ozarks, are generating/ can't wade. Lotta canoers, kayak, rafts this time of year.

My daughter and I float/fish there almost every year. The fall where the event was is near Hardy.
Gets real crowded afternoons gotta float early.

I found a sink hole in the Spring River once in college. Can’t remember her name but man that chick was crazy.

Glad you were able to pull yourself out of that. Sometimes those sinkholes will follow you home

Last I heard they stopped the water at Dam 3 and prolly gonna blow the rocks between it and the main stream. Not really a sink hole just kinda a anomaly in the bed rock. My guy Mark Crawford who runs a drift boat deal said in his blog.... no water not catching waiting for them to open Dam 3. I have no clue how that works, still gotta feed the hatchery....

I saw the video over the weekend showing them with the track hoe. Looked like it was about at its maximum depth getting out far enough to get the job done. Pretty cool to watch. I wonder why they didn't just tie some dynamite to a rope and feed it half-way through the tunnel and blow it. Seems like it would have been simpler and faster.
