Went yesterday after work to fish the dock near the boat launch. As each boat came in, everyone had anywhere from 10 to 15 16" slabs!!!
All were using rosie-reds near the fallen timber in about 2 to 3 FOW.

Probably one of the most overlooked lakes in central Arkansas. Hard to fish at times but there are some SLABS in there!
Sounds like the fishing is hot there right now...Thanks for the report.
Hmm...I've always seen the AGFC reports list the lake...but never gave it much thought or consideration. I might just head up there soon and look for some fat ladies...What is the max water depth?
In the past week, many folks have been pulling out MONSTERS. This is the place to be. Here is the lake layout to the best of my abilities to get depth readings.

I will get pictures next time I'm there. But, I'll be at Conway tomorrow and Sunday hopefully catching my limit on crappie and redear.
Wish me luck!
Thanks for the map! I had read that there was some borrow ditches dug around the perimeter, but couldn't really picture it in my head. I will definitely get out there and try it next week. Is the middle fairly clear to run the motor through there?
For the most part you can run your big motor in the GREEN area (I do), but be real careful as limbs and trees float about the entire lake.
I'll just take it easy my first trip...although I might get a lil' too eager with the thoughts of 16" crappie in the livewell!
16" slabs are nice. WTG!
If you pretty much go as straight as possible from the ramp to the channel you may not hit any hidden stumps. If you try to cut across you will have to be extra carefull. There is a lot of underwater stumps that used to be visable years ago.
That is a nice little lake that produces! Thanks so much for the report. I'm surprised it holds that kind of fish!

I havve had alot of luck in the boat but never from the bank or docks. i have always had the best luck by the timber near the boat ramp. Bass have always been good at the far end of the lake.
