Hey there Wing. This is a link to a page on my website that has two custom maps I made for Charles and Poinsett. http://www.familyfishingtrips.com/otherlakes.htm The Charles map is merely the outline of the stump fields. The one for Poinsett is actual submerged stumps and brushpiles. Both lakes are good for crappie using jigs or minnows. A couple of years ago Charles put on a length limit and stocked the lake with truckloads of 4-5" crappie. Some of them should be getting close to 10" if they've gotten enough to eat.

Frierson is a good lake for bass. Some say there are crappie in it but I've never caught one out of it. Big Lake and Mallard are good for the crappie and bass. The state record bass came out of Mallard. Hogue, south of Jonesboro, is good for crappie, tillapia, and bass. The last time I was there the boat ramp there is muddy gravel okay for small boats. Of course, to the west, Norfork is about 2.5 hours and then to the east you've go Reelfoot about 1.5 hours away. Yes, there is the St. Francis River, but that place scares me. There are places on that river that have never seen the whites of man's eyes.

Good luck and if you're ever in the Hot Springs area, give me a shout.
