Little Red River
For the Army Corps of Engineers’ real-time outflow report from Greers Ferry Dam, visit the Corps’ Little Rock office website or by calling (501) 362-5150). Also check the Southwestern Power Administration website to see forecast generation schedule.
NOTE: On Feb. 1, 2026, the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission changed trout limits for the Little Red River below Greers Ferry Dam. Anglers may keep two trout daily; trout 14 inches or longer must be released immediately. This rule is in effect until further notice.
(updated 6-18-2026) Mike Winkler of Little Red River Fly Fishing Trips (501-507-3688) said, “Happy Father’s Day to all the dads out there! It’s a great weekend to get outside and take a kid fishing.
“The weather forecast looks a little unsettled over the next several days with chances of rain throughout the week. We’re looking at daytime highs in the mid- to upper 80s, with a few days pushing 90 degrees and plenty of humidity. The rain is much needed as Arkansas continues to battle drought conditions. It doesn’t look like a washout by any means, but be prepared for some scattered pop-up thunderstorms, especially during the hotter afternoons.
“Greers Ferry Lake has risen slightly above summer power pool thanks to the rainfall we’ve received over the past several weeks. With the lake now above power pool and summer temperatures arriving, we’re beginning to see increased generation on the Little Red River.
“On Wednesday (June 17), the Southwestern Power Administration generated two units of water for roughly 10 hours. That’s the first time this year we’ve seen that much water released for that length of time. The same projection was scheduled again for Thursday. It’s still a little early to know exactly what the weekend generation schedule will look like, but with increased power demand and the lake sitting slightly above power pool, don’t be surprised if we continue to see higher flows.
“As always, I’d recommend checking the USACE Little
