About the maumelle river


The Maumelle River is a 64-mile long tributary of the Arkansas River that flows through central Arkansas. Historically, the river was used by Native American tribes for transportation and hunting. Today, the river is used for agricultural irrigation, recreation, and as a water source for the city of Little Rock. The river is fed by several small streams and tributaries and is dammed in several places, including the Lake Maumelle and Lake Winona reservoirs. These reservoirs provide drinking water and recreational opportunities for nearby communities. The river is also home to a variety of fish species, including catfish, bass, and crappie, making it a popular spot for fishing enthusiasts.
