The water

Buffalo National River (St. Joe) is a warmwater river in Arkansas, fished for smallmouth bass, spotted bass, redeye bass, panfish, catfish. On free-flowing water the trajectory is the story: falling and clearing after a bump is the window, rising water pushes fish to the banks and brings colour.
