Fishing near Springdale, AR


Set in Washington County at the heart of the Ozarks, Springdale sits at the center of northwest Arkansas's dense angling network — a local guide counts roughly 18 fishable waters within 45 minutes. The marquee draw is Beaver Lake, a 28,300-acre Corps reservoir on the White River headwaters about 20 miles northwest, backed by the cold White River tailwater and the gravel-bottom Illinois River.
