Arkansas: Check with Guides on Planned Fishing Trips

Fly-fishing guide Greg Seaton of Heber Springs offers this tip for those of you who were planning or had already scheduled a spring fishing trip (this applies to all fishing, not just trout excusions): "It may be best to check with your guide if you have a trip planned during the next couple of weeks. Some are taking trips and others are postponing until we get a better handle on the virus issue. You can discuss the trip with your guide and make your decision. It’s a hard decision to make, since we consider your health as well as our own. Social distancing is hard to practice while guiding in a boat. Again, each of us and you have to make these decisions, so call and discuss it with your guide. Hopefully, we will have a better handle on this in a couple of weeks. Good fishing, and good health!”
