Wake Up To The North Fork II is a pictorial presentation of the natural history of the North Fork River in Ozark County, Missouri. It shows the unique nature of this freestone river and its wild rainbow trout and trophy brown trout. Tips on how to fish and what patterns are most successful will also be discussed.
