Greers Ferry Lake is a 40,463-acre lake located in north- central Arkansas within Cleburne and Van Buren counties, with portions of Searcy and Stone counties contributing to its watershed. The communities of Greers Ferry and Heber Springs are located upstream of the dam on the lake, while Clinton, Arkansas sits approximately six miles northwest of the lake. Little Rock, Arkansas is 65 miles to the south, and Memphis, Tennessee is 130 miles to the east. The primary inflow of the lake is from the Little Red River with discharges from the lake flowing into the White River below the dam.

Wagner, Arkansas Game and Fish Commission, Box 178, Lonoke, AR 72806 Abstract: A roving creel survey was conducted on the Greers Ferry tailwater, Ar- kansas, from 1988 through 1992. Estimated angler use was high, averaging 295,319 angler hours and 1,006.5 angler hours per hectare annually. Estimated harvest of rainbow trout was high and consisted of mostly catchable size, stocked fish. Only 25% of rainbow trout caught were released.

Agencies 48:499-511 The upper White River system in northern Arkansas and southern Mis- souri, including its tributaries, has been impounded at several locations by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) to create hydropower/flood control reservoirs. The dams impounding each of these reservoirs discharge hypolim- netic water into the downstream tailwater resulting in coldwater habitat suitable for management of a trout fishery (Baker 1959, Fry 1962, Brown et al.

  • Greers Ferry
    U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service Greers Ferry National Fish Hatchery The Greers Ferry National Fish Hatchery and Aquarium is one of more than 80 units in the National Fish Hatchery System administered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. The Service also manages over 475 national wildlife refuges and major fish and wildlife research laboratories across the country. As the Nation's primary steward of fish and wildlife resources, the Service provides leadership in habitat and wetlands protection; fish and wildlife research and technical assistance; and in the conservation and protection of migratory birds, anadromous fishes, certain marine mammals, and threatened and endangered species. Greers Ferry Welcome and Enjoy Your Visit! National During your visit, please feel free to Fish ask any questions you may have Hatchery concerning the hatchery. What we do Operated by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Department of the Interior, this National Fish Hatchery is one of many serving a vital role in the management of our country's fishery resources. Construction of a dam, photo: USFWS photo: regardless of its type, alters the entire environment within the river. The first and most obvious change takes place when the photo: USFWS photo: reservoir fills, but many changes may also take place below the dam. Some of them might be subtle, and others, like those in the Greers Ferry tailwaters, might be quite drastic. Greers Ferry Dam produces a large, deep reservoir in which the water photo: USFWS photo: stratifies into temperature layers during the summer. The water released into Little Red River comes from a deep, cool layer.

  • An Angler's Paradise
    Greers Ferry Lake great escapes AN ANGLER’S PARADISE WRITER JENNIFER CHANDLER The Greers Ferry Lake and Little Red River area of Arkansas offers excep- tional opportunities to explore the great out-of-doors. For the fisherman, this part of Arkansas is pure paradise. It is one of the few places in the country where it’s possible to fish for largemouth bass, white bass hybrids, walleye and trout LOWER LEFT AND RIGHT: Guided fishing trips led by Jamie Rouse. PHOTOS BY TROY GLASGOW. all in the same day. With two world-record catches on Greers Ferry Lake and one world record on the Little Red River, it’s understandable why anglers are attracted to the region. “On the lake, there is great bass fishing,” says Orvis-endorsed, fly-fishing guide Jamie Rouse. “In the fall, it’s fun to fish for hybrids—a cross between a white bass and a striper—since the cooler water makes them more fishable by a fly rod.” Emerging icy cold from beneath the massive dam at Greers Ferry Lake, the Little Red River is a premier-class trout stream. “There are plenty of wadeable waters with public access,” Rouse continues, “but for the more adventurous angler, floating or boating is the productive way to fish.” When taking a break from fishing, there is plenty to occupy your time. Whether your tastes run to boating, golfing, hiking, biking, hunting or antique shopping, this is a place where you can do it all. “The fall in the Ozarks is just beautiful with all the colored leaves,” adds Rouse.
