Fly Fishing The Trout Capital of the USA - Remote Area

Today we explore the Trout Capital of the USA, in the remote town of Cotter Arkansas with a estimated population of 870 in 2022, hours from the nearest airport. while here, we went out with one of the best guides on the white river, Rising River Guides. We also fished the Norfork River in today's episode as we hunt for the elusive record trout hiding in these waters.
The US Record Brown Trout was caught in this same area, and today turned out to be our best day of fly fishing we've ever had! Subscribe for more as we hit the river over multiple days by boat, kayak, and wade fishing for trophy trout in the Trout Capital of the US.

No you are showing my language. I love fly fishing. I always enjoy your bass fishing but this is my favorite. Thanks for the video.

Awesome video Westin. Good to see you up in the area where I grew up. Tons of good fishing up in arkansas. People don’t realize how diverse the fishing is and how beautiful it is up there.

A float down the white for big browns is definitely on the bucket list! 🎣
