The lake nearest me, Norfork (41 miles one way) is not an easy lake to fish. Very clear, very deep and no structure. I just went to a fish habitat meeting at the COE for Norfork. I will post their RULES in a seperate thread, I left the meeting very unhappy. There are some locals who have been fishing the lake for a very long time and they do fair on crappie but it is not much of a crappie lake to say the least. Now if you want stripers it is the place to go!!!!
