Thread: today

i went to lake douglas this morning and ended up with 10, the wind picked up and i was off the lake by 11

Wanted to go to Nimrod but heard it was muddy so Thursday..Fished Dardanelle bay...couldn't find any baitfish?? Caught no crappie. Fri: Piney bay was too dingy for me also no baitfish caught nothing. Moved to the strip pits and caught 4 keepers. Being the only clean water it was heavily fished. Not my better day(s).

Nimrod is about 5' above normal on a slow rise. The yoyo fishermen should be catching fish up in the back of Negro Branch.

david, did those fish have any size on them yet...douglas usually turns on a little sooner than most of the deeper lakes...belcoe might be worth a try also here before too long

We got a mess of "eaters" and one good-ole-bigun that went 2-4 on Greeson fishing 18 to 26-feet deep:

Most came on rosy reds and shiners but the bigun took a chartreuse/silver/chartreuse Shinee Hinee tipped with a small rosy.

Yea, or the mouth of Carter creek. I'm sure you can get a good one now and then, but those little ones would keep you busy on yoyos. Last time I drifted I musta caught 50 or 60 with 2 or 3 keepers.
