About Cotter Trout Dock - An Arkansas Trout Fishing Guide Service Since 1954

For over 57 Years Cotter Trout Dock has been conducting exceptional guided trout fishing float trips and camping float trips on Arkansas' White River and North Fork River and small mouth bass fishing trips on the Buffalo National River in Northern Arkansas.

We are a Buffalo National Scenic River (National Park Service) approved fishing and camping outfitter. On Buffalo River trips, we camp on riverbank gravel bars at the rivers edge.

For White River camp trips, Cotter Trout Dock owns Smith Island, our private 15 acre island, at the confluence of the White River and Buffalo River. Our favorite trip is 24 miles down the Buffalo River through two Wilderness Areas; camping one night on the Buffalo River and the second night on our island on the White River, then fish 12 more miles on the White River to Norfork.

Cotter Trout Dock guided trout fishing trips are great for family vacations, customer appreciation and employee reward groups or just one boat full of friends. Fully Licensed and Insured. Established 1954.
