Number Gives Information
The White River below Beaver Dam flows clear and cold and is one of most popular places to fish during summer.
Rainbow and brown trout thrive in the ice-cold water.
Some anglers prefer to fish for trout when there is little current. Others drift-fish in a boat during power generation at Beaver Dam.
The big question from anglers is, “Are they generating?” The answer is a phone call away.
Call 417-336-5083. The recording says how many generators are running at Beaver and Table Rock Dams and the river levels.
