Little Red River

Little Red River is a river flowing through Arkansas, United States. River fishing rewards anglers who learn to read current — fish hold in the seams between fast and slow water, behind rocks and submerged logs, and at the heads and tails of pools. At Little Red River, working a lure or fly down-and-across the current usually outperforms casting straight upstream. Higher water concentrates fish; clear, low water makes them spookier.

Fishing Techniques

• For White bass

  Look for birds diving or surface activity to locate schools of white bass, then use lures that mimic shad or minnows to entice strikes.

• For Smallmouth bass

  Focus your fishing efforts around rocky structures, ledges, and areas with current, as smallmouth bass prefer these habitats.

• For Green sunfish

  Green sunfish often hold near structure, so target areas like submerged logs, docks, and weed beds. Use light tackle for a more sporting experience.
