Catching trophy trout is our specialty. Fly fishing or spin fishing, we catch trout of four pounds or more on almost all trips. Our guides all have extensive experience fishing the White and North Fork rivers in all types of weather and water conditions. We conduct trips all year as there are no closed seasons for Arkansas trout fishing. For experienced guides there is no particular "best" time of year for catching trophy trout, but most of our serious trophy fishermen prefer the cooler months of October, November, December, February, March, and April. Still others prefer fishing the high waters that typically occur in late spring, summer, and early fall months.

Your Beard's guide is more than just a "boat driver". One of the comments many people make after their first guided fishing trip is just how much easier it is to fish with a good guide than fishing alone. A good guide can "put you on the fish" in any water condition, any time of year. That takes extensive knowledge of trout habitat and feeding habits. And when that knowledge gets you hooked on a nice fish in a strong current the challenge begins. The current pulls on your line and you can lose control of the fight. But with the boat in the hands of a skilled guide you'll just dance around that fish, even in strong current. The guide puts you on the fish, then sees to it you catch them! When you add it all up - fishing knowledge, comfortable safe equipment, and skilled boat handling - you'll soon see what seasoned fishermen know - A good guide is well worth the money!
