About Mountain Fork River
Oklahoma's most popular trout tailwater, flowing cold from the base of Broken Bow Dam through Beavers Bend State Park in the Ouachita Mountains. The forested canyon scenery rivals anything in the Ozarks. Note: rainbow trout stocking has been temporarily paused due to ongoing dam renovation work — brown trout remain; check ODWC for current stocking status before planning a trip.
Regulations
Designated trout areas below Broken Bow Dam: artificial lures only in certain sections. Valid Oklahoma fishing license and trout stamp required. Check ODWC for current stocking status and regulations given ongoing renovation.
