Trout Fishing in the Ozark Mountains

Trout fishing is a wonderful way to spend an afternoon. There are plenty of trout streams and creeks located in the Ozark Mountains of Arkansas and Missouri. In total there are 18 spring fed streams and creeks that are open year round within the Ozark Mountains. There is public access on all 18 of these trout streams. It is also said that some of these streams produce trout 10 pounds and up. That is a huge trout. Considered the best of the 18 streams, the North Fork of the White is said to hold thousands of trout per mile. The tailwaters of the Ozarks are part of the White River System, hold thousand of trout and even some record breaking brown trout. 150 miles of the tailwaters produce good populations of trout and a 100 fish day is not uncommon. The North Fork River flows into the tailwaters and gives the White River cold water, which is what trout need, and why the tailwater trout fishing extends 150 miles. You could spend your entire vacation fishing these waters and not cover them all. The Ozark Mountain trout fishing is comparable to trout fishing anywhere else in the country and well worth a trip there.
