Spring 2007 Fishing Outlook on

Memorial Weekend by Ed & Janet McCarthy

"I am an experimenter, and a discussion at dinner revolved around catching fish during the “aluminum hatch” of canoe traffic that is inevitable during Memorial weekend.  I seem to recall hooking up at times even with a canoe in the vicinity.  My theory was that the trout are wild in the North Fork, but canoes are a rather natural condition; and not all of the fish are put down by the traffic.  The next day would allow the perfect conditions for the experiment..."

One Cold Day by Patrick Robinson

"At the days end, we pulled up to the take out and Myron asked me how I did. I said, “Not to bad, I went eight for twelve.” He looked at me as if confused and said, “What do you mean eight for twelve?” I replied, “Well, I had twelve hooked but only landed eight.” He looked surprised that I had done so well..."

The River of Life Farm, Outfitters for the North Fork River, offers several lodging and cabin options and is located in the heart of the Wild Trout Management Area of the North Fork of the White River, Missouri Ozarks. Included is over one mile, the "miracle mile," of private wade fly fishing for wild rainbows and trophy brown trout, the best Missouri has to offer. Bank access to this mile of prime wild rainbow trout fishing is an exclusive for River of Life Farm guests.

The ROLF is located on the North Fork River where we can offer the outdoor enthusiast about anything they could want. Hiking opportunities within the grounds, or in the close by Mark Twain National Forest, are spectacular and offer a chance to view Missouri flora, fauna, and landscape in all their beauty. Look at the Ball Pond Hollow pictorial for an example of what awaits.
