About this river

Long Pine Creek

Long Pine Creek is a 28-mile long tributary of the Niobrara River in north-central Nebraska, USA. It is a popular spot for fly fishing, kayaking, and camping. The creek is fed by several springs, including the famous Sandhills Springs, and is home to a variety of fish species such as brown and rainbow trout. The creek has two main reservoirs, including the Keller Park Reservoir and the Long Pine Creek Dam, which were constructed in the 1940s as part of the larger Middle Loup Project. The reservoirs are used for irrigation and flood control, while the creek supports local agriculture through grazing and hay production. The Long Pine Creek has a rich history, dating back to the prehistoric times when it was inhabited by Native American tribes, and it was later used as a transportation route during the fur trade era.
