North Fork of the White RiverSouthern Missouri sports some amazing spring-fed streams and the NFOW is at the top of the list. But you better bring your A-game... it's pools and riffles are a challenge for the best fly caster and the trout are not easily fooled. Subforums: |

St. Francis RiverThe St. Francis River, one of MO's finest and most diverse. From its headwaters in the St. Francois mountains to where it exits Missouri in the Southeast Mo. lowlands, it starts at one of the highest elevations and leaves at the lowest. The upper end is home to clear waters and fast runs. Whitewater championships are held in the upper reaches in the spring flood season. After the Little St. Francis and Big River enter in, the river forms deep runs with riffles at each end. It is dammed up from near Greenville to Wappapello Dam forming a 44,000 lake for flood control. After that it becomes a lowland river, slow and deep, full of silt, to Wilhelmina at Mo.'s lowest point. |

Black RiverLocated in Reynolds County, the Black River is one of the prettiest rivers in the state. Very very clear water. You can see the rocks on the bottom in 10-12 feet of water. Very nice smallmouth stream. But the clear water can make it tough to fish sometimes too. |
