Weekend at Ouchita

Needless to say the lake is way up. Water temp was 71 degrees Friday and 69 Sat. Caught waleye and bass on crank baits off points connected to main lake in the mornings in 10 FOW. Afternoons were slow. Slow roll spinners and plastic worms close to cover off main points. All bass we caught, were females with eggs. Crappie would hit a small crankbait every so often. Others caught nice size Bream in coves under floating cover.

Oauchita can be a lot of fun this time of the year. Thanks for the report.

This lake will test you, son!! It is 7.92 feet high right now, but fishable. I fish the west end most of the time because of the cantankerous winds.

The water clairity should be a little stained (just right) and I am looking forward to getting back on the lake as soon as the shop finishes up my warranty work on the Yamaha. :)
