The countdown to February 1st starts tonight!
Today, October 31st, marks the final day of public access to the waters immediately below Bull Shoals Dam before the annual seasonal closure begins.
*The rest of the river remains open for GREAT fishing!
The area will remain closed to fishing through November, December, and January, reopening February 1st at 12:00 AM.
That’s three months without fishing pressure in this stretch of the White River, giving anglers something to look forward to when access reopens.
Want to be among the first to put a fly in front of these fish in February? We’re taking reservations for early February guided trips at WRTC. Get in touch now to secure your dates!
