My family and I had a great half day fishing trip with Jenkins Fishing! We caught our limit and enjoyed our time together on the water. Cobb, our guide knows the river, is a lot of fun and is great with the kids. I would highly recommend this guide service, and we will definitely be back!!!

Amazing! We were in town for the 2024 eclipse and decided to catch a couple of hours of fishing before heading home. Guide (owner) was very kind, great shop dog present to welcome visitors in the parking lot & lobby, and amazing scenery. We hauled in two small trout and had a 24"+ trout reeled into the boat before it got away. Will come back!

Was guided by a gentleman who was exceptional and new the river very well! Was catching fish within 30 minutes of arriving at the dock! A tremendous day on the White River in Calico Rock, AR. Thanks for a great day of fishing!

We had such a great experience renting a boat from Jenkins over the weekend! The host, Dave, was so kind and Dobby the dock dog was such an added treat! We will be back!

My husband and I came for a half day fishing trip and a motel room the night before. The motel room was comfy and peaceful. The next day, we had the best time with our guide and Dave. They were such good sports despite the bad weather and we caught some really cool fish! They even let us bring our dog and were super gracious with her. Really thankful for this organization and would 10/10 recommend them!

We've rented a boat from Dave at Jenkins twice now, and both times have been 11/10 experiences. The motors worked great and the boats were clean and ready to fish. We also stayed in Jenkins motel and it was 11/10 as well. It was a VERY clean room, with good amenities. I'd recommend the boat rental service and the motel to anyone. If you're looking to rent a boat and fish Calico Rock, go to Jenkins Trout Dock. You won't be disappointed. If I'm fishing Calico Rock, I'm going to Jenkins every time. They have a loyal customer in me.

Best fishing guide service on the White. Been coming to this dock for over 30 years now & fished with numerous guides. Never a dull day. Never a disappointment. The new owner, Dave, goes out of his way to please. Looking forward to making this a tradition with my own kids moving forward, as my dad did with me.

The owner is second to none with accommodating and knowledge. He is definitely in tune with that river and what the fish are biting on. I'm excited about the next trip

The guys at Jenkins Fishing Service in Calico Rock, AR, were so accommodating! We booked a Half-Day Guided Trout Fishing trip with them, and had the best time! Dave booked our trip, and recommended scenic sites & local lunch spots to grab a bite. Our fishing guide, Ron, knew all the great fishing spots, and put us right on the fish. They were both very personable, and passionate about fishing! Check them out if you’re ever up that way!

This trip was a perfect, relaxing getaway after our wedding. Cobb was an expert guide, customizing our experience to be great for both a beginner like me, and my husband with more experience. The shoreside lunch was delicious and we were constantly reeling in fish all day. We also stayed at the Jenkins motel a short drive from the dock, and had a great experience there as well.

We went on a half day fishing tour and had a great time. Everything was ready to go, and Mr. Cob took us up and down the river all the morning. Caught a good number of trout and loved the scenery. Great way to get to know the area.

We started with a day of guided fishing in the White River. Our guide Cob showed us the best spots. Gave us tips on how to fish for trout, and answered all of our questions without once rolling his eyes. At lunchtime we beached the boat and Cob prepared us a great shore lunch from our morning catch. Fresh trout in salt, Onion and butter, wrapped in foil. After lunch we filled our limit of trout and Cob cleaned our fish just the way we wanted . They sent us away happy with our experience.We also stayed at the Jenkins motel in Calico Rock. Close to the river, comfortable, clean, vintage room with a kitchenette.The owners Dave and Michaele also filled us in on where to find what we needed as far as food and entertainment locally in the Calico Rock area.This was a great experience, we'll be back.MoreDate of stay: September 2022

We had 5 in our party between two boats. David the owner and Tim our guide were very nice and accommodating. My boy and I from Arkansas, my uncle from Houston and my uncle and cousin from Washington state all thoroughly enjoyed great fishing, beautiful scenery and spending family time together with our professional guides. Thank you Jenkin’s! We’re looking forward to another trip in the future! Highly recommend!

Great service, kind people and we feel like part of the Jenkins’ fishing family. Excellent guides …. You learn so much from fishing with the guides. Super fun bank side lunches. Great motel as a fishing lodge. Oh yes, we always catch trout.

A place offering boat rentals for the river to ride up and down to catch some fish. They'll even filet it for you so it's ready to prep and eat. A good experience all around.

Have been going since 2008 and always catch fish. I think the best fishing is in the winter though.
