 Spring River
The likelihood of catching a lunker trout on the Spring is minimal, but what the fish lack in poundage by comparison with trout fishing on the White or Little Red is compensated by the fierce fight that the fish can wage in the relatively calm water.
Spring River anglers will also find good action for jumbo channel and flathead catfish, tailwalking spotted bass, and small but sassy rock bass, warmouths and longear sunfish.
Next door to the park is the Mammoth Spring National Fish Hatchery, the nation's leading producer of smallmouth bass (and also a source for largemouth and striped bass, walleye, channel catfish, and redband trout).

 Spring River   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
Spring River is unique among Arkansas trout streams; its cold water comes naturally from a spring rather than artificially from deep within a man-made lake.
Water from Spring River Lake is piped to the bottom of the silos and pours out the top of them to continuously exchange the water and flush the fish culture by-products.
It is also in this portion of the river that the tiger muskies have become established and where many unsuspecting trout anglers have had their light tackle stolen by the big, voracious tiger.

 Spring River, Missouri
The best time to paddle the Spring River (the one in southwestern Missouri, not the one that flows into Mammoth Springs on the Arkansas border) is usually in late-winter through late-spring, or in late-fall, if there has been sufficient rainfall to raise the flow after summer lows.
The Spring River is generally free of significant hazards to navigation other than potential dangers at low-water crossings, especially in high-water conditions.
The river diverges north as it nears Joplin, and while some outskirts developement will be found in that area, the river mostly bypasses the city proper in favor of a path through more remote countryside in the three states through which it flows.

 River Indicates Warmer Climate And Earlier Spring In Central Maine
“We compared long-term records of ice thickness and water flow for the Piscataquis River with air temperature for the surrounding area and found significant trends that are consistent with climate warming and advancing spring,” said Thomas Huntington, lead author and hydrologist at the USGS Maine District Office.
That study concluded that the center of the winter/spring runoff near the end of the 20th century at different rivers is one to two weeks earlier than it had been at the beginning of the century.
A companion study of rivers in coastal Maine showed large increases in February river flows during the 20th century and large decreases in May flows, suggesting earlier snowmelt.

 Macomb Daily : Clinton River spawns spring steelhead 04/14/05
The explosion of a steelhead fishery in the Clinton River spurred biologist Jim Francis of the Department of Natural Resources Fisheries Division to conduct a Postcard Creel Survey this year.
Francis said successful stocking of fingerling steelhead in the river is a major factor in the resurgence of the Clinton as a major fishery.
Francis said steelhead are making a comeback down river as far as Mount Clemens at Shadyside Park where the DNR was "electro fishing" last week, a process of stunning the fish long enough to weigh, measure and tag before being released.
