The Ouachita tailwaters are a named AGFC trout-water complex below the Ouachita dams where catchable rainbows are stocked in the cool months, not a White River rival. This is southern Arkansas trout fishing at its most seasonal — cold-release windows, stocked fish, and a much more modest promise than Bull Shoals or Norfork. Hot Springs and Lake Ouachita anglers often ask about it, and the honest answer is that it's a cool-season, release-dependent stocked trout option.
