The May issue of Outdoor Life has ranked Mountain Home #11 out of its Top 20 Towns for great fishing and hunting.

The article notes that Mtn Home, which was the number one town in the magazine's inaugural ranking four years ago, "...continues to hold strong... The small town of fewer than 15,000 people is nestled in a valley in the heart of the beautiful Ozark Mountains between two enormous reservoirs: Bull Shoals and Norfork lakes."

The article notes that local anglers enjoy year-round, open-water fishing for numerous species, including largemouth, smallmouth and striped bass; walleyes, crappies, bream; and catfish.  The White and North Fork Rivers hold enormous brown and rainbow trout, which thrive in the coldwater habitat below the dams.

The Outdoor Life article goes on to note "stellar fishing isn't the only game in town. Whitetail populations are holding steady, stands of red and white oak trees are the haven of innumerable squirrels, and chasing gobblers through the hollows of the Ozarks National Forest is as much of a rite of spring as listening to Cardinals baseball..."
