Beaver Lake Fishing Report - Updated Weekly

Courtesy of Arkansas Game & Fish Commission

As of Tuesday, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers reports the lake’s elevation at 1,128.71 feet MSL. JT’s Crappie Guide Service (479-640-3980) said bass have been biting well on spinnerbaits fished along the points and in the flooded timber. Sight-fishing is at its best in the Indian Creek arm and in the back of the Cliftys. Crappie fishing is the same, slow and tough. Try a minnow under a cork in the flooded timber around 2 to 6 feet deep in the White River and War Eagle arms. White bass action has slowed and the fish have moved back to the main lake. Stripers are scattered and the bite is slow. Fishing live shad around Point 12 has produced well. Catfishing is excellent across the lake. Southtown Sporting Goods (479-443-7148) said the water is muddy and high. Bream are biting well on crickets. Crappie are fair in 6 to 8 feet of water on minnows and jigs. White bass are fair in shallow water on crawfish.
