White River Arkansas Trip

2026 MFFC ARKANSAS TRIP

@ THE WHITE RIVER TROUT LODGE

WEEK #1 – FEBRUARY 22 thru 27   HOST: SCOTT FREEBURG

COST: $1600

Attention MFFC Fly Fishers,

For 2026 The Michigan Fly Fishing Club will again host a 5-night, 4-day guided fly-fishing trip to the famed White River in the Ozark Mountains of Arkansas.  The trip will be a MFFC sanctioned trip in conjunction with guide Kelly Neuman and his crew from Streamside Custom Rod & Guide Service.  www.arkansasstreamside.com

The regular cost for 4 nights and 3 days of guided drift boat fly fishing is $1800, but for us, he has reduced the per person cost for 5 nights and 4 days of guided fishing to $1600.

This also will include lodging at the White River Trout Lodge on the banks of the White River, 3 meals (breakfast, lunch & dinner) per day, rods, flies and other essential equipment.

The cost for transportation to and from the lodge in Cotter, Arkansas will be our own responsibility.

At this time our trip date is set for late February and early March and limited to 12 fly fishers per trip. In addition, two anglers per boat is required.

Arrive on Sunday, guided float trips Monday through Thursday, then depart Friday morning.

The total cost for the trip will be broken into 3 payments, each with its own deadline. A deposit of $400 due on or before October 15, 2025 to reserve your spot. An additional $400 will be due November 19, 2025 to make 50% deposit. The remaining $800 will be due on arrival in Arkansas with the group.

Payments can be made by cash or check to us, or credit card to Streamside. If for some reason you are unable to be at one of the deadline meetings, you can mail a check made out to either of us for the week you want at our home address.

SIGN-UP BEGINS ON THE DAY OF THE FIRST CLUB MEETING IN SEPTEMBER, Wednesday the 3rd!!

To reserve your spot please feel free to telephone, email or see us at upcoming club meetings.
