Greers at night
Looks like I'll be batching it this weekend, which means I can do a little night time R&R. I was thinking about dragging my barge up to Greers Friday after work. My intended M.O. is to get there before sunset, find a decent spot to anchor, then throw something on the grill and get ready to drown some bait. If I never stretch line that's okay, but if anyone has any pointers as to how and where I might boat a few for the cooler I'd be grateful. Crappie, Walleye, Cats, etc. Any and all are welcome at my table.;)

Oh yeah, and if someone thinks I should go elsewhere I'm all ears. I'd prefer not to travel more than 1.5 hours from Little Rock. Thanks everyone.

Recenty I have been anchoring at night around the Pt. 14 area. Mostly fishing live minnows down near the bottom. Have caught a nice mix of hybrids, white bass, walleye, and catfish. It seems there has been a good bite about 1 hr before dark and 2hrs after.
-
Okay. Thanks for that. Can I find that area by using my Navionics map of Greers? Not terribly familiar with the lake.
-
If you launch from Choctaw, go about 2 miles east. It's the big point that sticks out where the S. Fork of the Little Red enters the lake. You should see the sign on land
-
Great. I appreciate the info.
-
Let me know how you do. I haven't been up there in a few days because of the heat.
-
Yeah, it's hot. No doubt about that. I appreciate your input. If you're out there tomorrow night stop by and I'll feed you.
-
If all goes has planned I will be one of the boats tied up to the narrows bridge tomorrow night.
-
Cool. Hopefully the 30% chance of scattered storms doesn't become 100% chance some time during the night.

Tied up right before dark and left at 1:30 caught around 20 something hybrids/whites, had one break my line but it was because I was horsing him to much trying to keep him out of the lights. We did catch one crappie which was a first for us there. Could see some bream big enough to clean under the lights eating minnows. We were using bigger minnows and most of the bait around the lights was still small, I wish we wouldve used smaller minnows.

Fished around point 14 Friday night and had no luck. Caught a few hybrids and cats early next morning. We were using large minnows. Had a great time though. I really like that end of the lake. If last weekend was any indication it's not nearly as covered up as the rest of the lake.
