Kalki, I live in the lonoke area and have fished in your areas alot. I would try dagmar bayou in Dagmar WMA. There are tons of crappie in there and it is narrow enough to where you can fish from the bank and cast or do whatever you need to do to get to the fish. Find a tree that has fallen into the water and you will find crappie all up in that joker!!! Also i would do like Midsouth said and fish the chain lakes in Bisco. They produce a lot of crappie also. Hope this helps.
