As part of the journey to its final destination of the Mississippi River and the Gulf of Mexico, the water of the Little South Fork spends miles lapping along the Burnett fields and bluffs. The water is available for recreation or for agriculture.
The River is home to bass, sunfish, turtles, catfish, gar, redeye, and trout. It is ideal for John boats, canoes, kayaking and rafts. There are fords for wading and holes for swimming. The river provides the opportunity to float down the river, fish along the way, pull up to the banks, fry fish for supper, spend the night camping out and resume the trip come break of day.
Seasons are reflected in nature's adornment of the river banks. In the spring, the banks are lush with wildflowers. In the summer, the shade along the river invites repose and meditation. In the fall, the array of red, brown and gold herald the advent of the cold. In the winter, animals are easily tracked and identified by the footprints left in the snow as they come to the river to drink.
