About Us
Meet Owner and Head Guide, Tadd Fore
Tadd is an Arkansas native who grew up an outdoorsman fishing and hunting the Ozarks. As such, it was a natural transition into guiding full time after several years managing Dally's Ozark Fly Fisher in Cotter, AR. Tadd's background includes guiding for trout in western Colorado, smallmouth bass and trout in the Ozarks, the cofounder of The Smallmouth Tour, and has had work featured in media like The Ozark Podcast and The Ozark Fly Fisher Journal, as well as had appearances in Southern Culture on the Fly Magazine, April Vokey's Youtube vlog, and Bluff Line Media's Undammed: A Buffalo River Adventure. Tadd is also a dedicated husband to a very fishy wife and a father to three incredible kids.
Tadd works diligently to provide a quality experience for his clients and seeks to build lifelong friendships and memories with everyone who steps into his boat. Furthermore, he has a trusted team of high-quality guides at his disposal to accommodate anyone looking for a good time on the river. It is the desire of Ozark Waters Fly Fishing to have the opportunity to show clients just how great the rivers of north Arkansas really are, all the while making memories in the process.
