Me. too. I remember picnics and fishing before it was made into a park. I remember the celebration when the dam was opened (yeah. I'm old.). Good memories.
When I was a kid, my folks would fish where the campground is. There were great sycamores and soft maples along the river that were impressive. It was beautiful in its primitive condition. One time we saw a bear across the river. Scared me to death. I hid in the car for the rest of that trip.
Welcome to Arkansas, the "Natural State". When you said you were going to Bull Shoals and the White River, I knew you were going to fall in love with them. I'm glad the dogwoods and redbuds are in bloom while you are there...beautiful. Have a blast while you are there!
We love that whole area. Gastons is a very cool place restaurant hanging over the river. We go down there every year to decorate graves. In the reception area of Gastons there is a photo of my great grandfathers river ferry. There’s a wonderful pontoon tour of the lake that can be arranged at the dam visitor center. There’s a nice ramp at Cotter a few minutes down the road.
Man how I love to go to Florida and fish !!! I love this video of my home , thx for the work Making this , Hope y’all had fun good to see some Floridians enjoy these Arkansas trout and scenery we take it for granted sometimes…
Great video guys,, Mountain Home here, I try to get over to the White river every chance I get. Always great to see folks from out of state come here to enjoy the beauty.
Everybody loves camping. I did so much of it when I was a kid with my folks that I just got sick of it. But there are a lot of places to camp in this beautiful country, so enjoy.
I saw you show Memphis at the beginning of your video. I'm from Memphis. Lived there for 62 years before moving to Gatlinburg, TN. I camped at a lot of the AR lakes and fished the tailwaters. I always thought I would retire in the Mountain View area. But I've never stayed at Bull Shoals St Pk. Maybe one day.
Past up the boat ramp twice. I'm from Stuart, FL and have been coming to this park for the past 20 yrs. Now that I drive truck I come here three times a year for a week each.
we had a lake house about 1/2 mile from where your video was taken. I just love the area. the lakes are great and the river at the park is beautiful. during the summer when the dam is open it acts like an air conditioner. the breeze off of the mountain crossing the cold river is the most relaxing thing ever. I never did any good trout fishing but I always enjoyed hanging out at the park.
Beautiful camping and fishing. There are many deer outside your tent while you're sleeping.
When I lived in New Orleans we would drive to the white river to fish trout. Amazing place.
My home area! I know gastons and that area well. So beautiful, makes me miss it. Arkansas has a way to grabbing hold of you!

Gooood afternoon from central Florida! Hope everyone has a great day!
Good Afternoon!👋
Really nice to see. Thanks Abom & Abby.

The wireless mic sounds great. We can hear every word you said loud and clear and the motorbike and wind didn't drownd you out. 👍👍😎

Fresh trout for brekkie. Does not get better than that.
I will be in Atlanta hopefully late next year. Looks like a nice place to visit. Bit of a swim from Australia.
Love it! Way to go, y'all!!!
State park campgrounds are usually excellent, especially in the southeast.
From Jonesboro I learned how to ski on Bull Shoals in the early 80s
Real pretty area! Will be taking my 6 yr old daughter for her 1st official fishing trip tomorrow so we'll see what she catches😁
Nice video!! How far in advance did you have to book the camp site?
Yummy ,we just ate at gastons 2022 food was amazing Cheri
Those blue Skies you are so lucky 👌
Wow Adam!, my grandparents lived near Bull Shoals lake near Peel, went fishing there a lot when I was a kid

Hello from Germany ;-)
Very nice trip!
That's a beautiful campground Adam. Enjoy. Did you stop to see Steve Summers in KY? I found his channel from you. Thank you.
Man, that monkey rips! : - )
Hi Adam! Do you or Abby like to fish? You are constantly blessed being around fishing waters on you travels! Just wondering. Have a safe trip!
That's a great question!
I’ll talk more about my history of fishing in the next video. I used to fish a lot with dad when I was young. I kind of lost interest as I got older.
@@AbomAdventures thank you for your response! Have a great evening Adam & Abby!

What pot do you use for Cowboy Coffee? Ones I have seen online appear cheap and foreign-made with poor enamel quality.
My stomping grounds
What do fish in the lake say when they run into concrete? Dam.
Nice
What was the site number?

Yes many tent camper sites
Both times that we were here, the BUGs were really bad. (July)
Love Gastons
