There is an oxbow lake close to me that is called Midway. The Mississippi river gets in it around 22 foot. I have no idea how many acres it is but, it is a fairly good size oxbow. It has some big crappie in it, 2 pound crappie are normal. The thing that I do not like about the lake is that it runs north and south and it is hard to get out of the wind. The levee dones not break the wind enough.
