Went in high school 20+ years ago, friends dad booked us a private plane up there... water was low, at times we had to pick up canoe and carry over low spots... wish I could remember how many Miles we did but we would paddle most of day for 2-3 days then set up tent camps on sandy shores/fish swim/rock climb.... cooked steaks/fish/potatoes/eggs, you name it all over Open fire we made. Don’t think we saw anyone else. Closest place You can go to feel like you’re a pioneer/voyager/explorer, whatever you want to call it. We took fly fishing lessons before the trip and I caught several small mouth bass... One of my best memories and can’t wait to take my sons

One of my best memories


Same here. We rented a cabin on the river in Eureka Springs, if I recall correctly. Had to drive a ways to get to the canoe place for the river float but the cabin had a sandy shoreline access area where people could swim and play all day. All I did all day, every day was dive with my swimming mask on trying to hand-catch these huge fish that would congregate along the big rocks at the bottom. My Dad told me they were Sauger Fish? Them bastards would let me get within inches of them before scooting off like a bat out of hell...
