Cotter, Arkansas · Fishes White River
Trips cover roughly 50 miles of White River tailwater plus the Norfork tailwater, working out of Cotter, Arkansas, with several put in zones rather than a single launch, so the day starts where the water is fishing. Rainbow and brown trout are the fish, and both spin and fly tackle are offered. Spin trips are $450 for a four hour half day for one or two people, $550 for a full day with a box lunch and $600 for a full day with a shore lunch, at $225 to $300 for each additional person. Fly trips are $500 for a half day and $600 for a full day with a box lunch. Full days run 7:30 in the morning to 3:30 in the afternoon; a half day is any four hour block in daylight. Bait, tackle, flies, leaders, rods, reels, water and soft drinks are included and licenses are not. Children twelve and under are half price riding with two adults.
