About: -
High in the mountains of Madison County lie the beginnings of the Kings River.
From this steep country the stream twists its way northward to the White River and finally flows
into southern Missouri's Table
Rock Lake, a distance of approximately 90 miles. In its upper reaches, the
Kings cuts a narrow gorge through sandstone, shale, and limestone. On downstream
the surrounding countryside is not quite so precipitous, but the water is the
same--clear and cool. The Kings has countless rock bass and hefty channel cats, but when fishing this
stream, first and foremost on the minds of most anglers are the big smallmouth
bass. Take along heavy tackle. Some people expect bass from this smallish stream
to be small, too, and that can cost trophy fish, which commonly reach four to
six pounds. A baitcasting reel, a medium-action rod, and 10- to 12-pound line
are appropriate.Note: J.D. Fletcher Kings River Access Point is open. The access point is just below the Kings River Bridge on U.S. Highway 62 between Berryville and Eureka Springs in north Arkansas.
