Arkansas Fly Fishing Vacations in the Ozarks

Fly fishing vacations - Arkansas fly fishing

There are few places in the entire USA that offer the opportunity for such a wide range of species that may be caught fly fishing. The Ozarks comes top of the list for those options.

The jewel in the crown is the White river, and the short section of the Norfolk that flows into the White river some 40 miles downstream of Bull shoals dam. The White and Norfolk rivers currently produce many world class trophy trout, many in excess of 10lb, and for those lucky anglers numbers of fish in excess of that are caught through the year. Both rivers contain, Brown, Rainbow, Brook and Cutthroat trout.

Both the White and Norfolk rivers are designated tail waters, that is they are influenced by water flows from release of water from the lakes through the dam at Bull shoals and Norfolk. The continuous flows of water from the lake above introduce into the river systems the vital nutrients to sustain invertebrate food sources, one of the reasons why trout will grow fast in these fertile systems.

Fly fishers have some 100 miles of trout water combined for the two rivers. There are 5 designated trophy catch and release zones through the systems. Through out the systems there are a number of shoals, good wadeable water that holds many fish. Fly fishing from a drifting boat is very popular and would be the only option if water levels are too high to permit wading access.

The Arkansas Game and Fish have provided for a good number of access points for both wade and boat access.
