Arkansas Wildlife Fishing Report

Feb. 28, 2018

Heavy rains from last weekend and then again Tuesday evening over much of the state have pushed lake and stream levels much higher. Many of the Army Corps of Engineers lakes, from Millwood to Beaver, have seen an uptick of 10 to 20+ feet in rise over the week and limited some fishing opportunities. Greers Ferry Lake's rise has hurt trout fishing opportunies for waders on the Little Red River. You'll need to drift-fish due to the high river.
