Fish Management
The Arkansas Game and Fish Commission has the awesome responsibility to manage and maintain fish populations in most of Arkansas' waters. Our knowledgeable biologists create species management plans, preform studies on various bodies of water and make decisions based on their findings. Our hatcheries rear the fish that are ultimately trucked across the state to their final destination.
