We spend 3 days floating down the Buffalo River Wilderness in Arkansas. We kayak down the river for 24 miles as we fly fish for smallmouth bass! It's an unforgettable few days of fly fishing, camping, and kayaking on this secluded and scenic river!

I’ve lived a mile off this river my whole life. Green pumpkin gitzit tears the smallmouth up.

Lots of cool places in Arkansas for sure, but New Zealand is at the top of my bucket list!

Glad y'all enjoyed it. That's a smart time to come. Water kinda low, but fewer people on the river. I'm gonna do the headwaters to the White trip one of these springs . Thankfully some smart people saved this river from being damed up during the middle of the last century. There were people who really wanted to turn this place in to another reservoir, like all of the ones along the White. Thank God people faught to preserve this place as us. It's America's 1st national river, and is truly a treasure. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks! It was a memorable experience and it was a great time to float for sure! The headwaters of the White are my list as well! Yes, I’m really grateful that they had the foresight, conservation mind, and diligence to preserve this river!

As a film maker, you killed this one. Randomly came across this on YT, feels like I've gone on the adventure with you. Keep it up

So well documented! I'll be heading there next month and probably headed to a similar stretch since the upper is super low for now. I'll have to pick up some of those dungeon flies and give them a go. Thanks for this timely post!

@@OutdoorHighlife thank you! I’m hoping we catch the tail end of foliage but it’ll be thanksgiving so probably a bit late. We shall see! My in laws are in Tulsa so we are in that area every year around thanksgiving. We will have to connect and go on a trip one of these days!

@@GatewoodBrown Y’all have a great trip! Most of my family lives in the Texas hill country so hopefully we can get a trip going one day!

I'd really like to make this 3-day trip. Can you give me an idea of the cost (truck transport, camping fees, etc). Thanks, and great job on the video! JD

I honestly can’t remember the price! I had my own kayak and my buddy rented a kayak from the outfitters. Camping is free. If you have your own kayak, your essentially paying them to shuttle your truck to takeout. I’m thinking maybe like 80.00 dollars for the shuttle, but don’t quote me on that. But you may just call them and let them know your specific circumstances! Thank You!
