Area Fishing & Recreation Excellent Despite Spring 2008 Floods
With rare exception area lake and river resorts were not damaged by flooding this spring. Trout fishing remains excellent on the White and North Fork Rivers. Canoeing and fishing on the Buffalo river will be excellent this spring. Area road damage was minor.

Norfork and Bull Shoals lakes do have high water levels. Dock access in some locations may be limited but most docks can be accessed. Lake fishing will be excellent this spring, lake watersports this summer will not be affected. High water greatly enhances lake fish spawns.

Most resorts are not experiencing diminished dock services, a few are. Diminished dock services will be temporary. If you have concerns please call your favorite resort for details. More flood details
