Thread: Where to go around the Fort Smith area

Went out on the river Sunday. Decided to hit up Vache Grass. Pulled up to the boat ramp and the creek was probably 4 feet low. Decided to give it a shot anyways and fished all morning and didn't get a single bite (except for one gar). Guess the falling water had something to do with it. I'm not an experienced river fisherman and have just started trying to learn that beast. If anyone has had any success they are willing to share from around the Fort Smith area I'd be interested in hearing as well. Thanks to everyone!

Caught some in the grass today at Jack Nolan lake. Bass are way back in the grass and the crappie on the edge to about a foot or two back in it. Used my long pole and I just dropped the jig in and pulled it up once it went down a few feet to the stop on the slip cork. Were hitting it pretty quick. Fished the 4-5 ft water almost all morning and only caught one. The last hour I decided to flip real shallow and caught 6. The crappie was tough fishing. Bass was easy.
