    Default Arkansas River/Parlarm Creek/10-5-09


    Fished the Parlarm Creek area between Lake Conway and the Arkansas River today. Let me tell you'all this creek has them. Go up the creek from the Arkansas River find the nast'ist stuff you can find laying in the middle of the creek and verticle jig chart or white and chart tubes, or slip bobber minnows 2-4 feet deep and you'll catch some fish. Caught these in just a few hours of evening fishing. You must be proficient with the long pole to make it work here, and stay away from 4lb test here or you'll be sorry more than once. You will find me in this creek tomarrow morning. Make sure you lock your vehicle and secure everything in the parking lot by the Arkansas River. I have never had a problem, but I have heard tells of problems with theft. I ain't going to let it stop me from fishing, over the years I have had monster catches in this creek from Sept-Apr. You can also put in a small John Boat or small fiberglass boat at the Bell Slough area near I-40 which is great fishing also. Give this spot a try if you live in Central Arkansas. CP

    Nice catch, Crappiepro. Wish I lived closer. That sounds like my kind of fishing. Well, to be honest, any kind of crappie fishing is my kind of fishing. LOL.

    I don't fish the river much. But I do a lot of toon boating in that area. If you are from this side of the river, it aint much of a boat ride from Maumelle State Park. Three bucks to launch and I have never had a problem parking there.
    BTW
    Thanks for the info; again!!!
    I think I am going to take the last week of this month off to be first in line in the pool.

    Wholly CRAPPIE CP! :D

    They look like they're about 2lbs a piece or it is the camera angle? Any how, that is a mess.

    How far back in there did you say? And, isn't the water moving fairly fast back in there with all the rain?
