with the various types of water in arkansas i'd like to specifiy things a bit. not that the deep impoundments aren't interesting to me, but i fish oxbows primarily, in addition to the mississippi river. thus, an oxbow-related thread is needed.

for those of you in this neighborhood, what's working for you now?

presently, i'm running yo-yo's on a private oxbow on family land. it's formed by bayou bartholomew, and is about 300 feet wide and a mile long. plenty of cypress and the typical "old" channel.

crappie are ssssllllllloooow. course, it's summer in these parts. i've got deep water but the fish won't bite. fished everydamnwhere. catfish are great on the minnows, but the crappie are slow.

so what are the other oxbowmen/women doing?

cheers,
