: Horseshoe Lake: Kent Williams of Oxbow Guide Service (870-278-7978) said the surface temperature at Horseshoe was 59 degrees. Water was clear and the lake was low by about 2 feet. There is water in the Happy Jack area but it is shallow.
The prespawn bite for crappie continues and the fish are extremely scattered. There are fish in the shallows as well as deep water, and those in deep water are scattered vertically in the water column. Our trips this past week produced fish with jigs in the colors of oranges, silvers and pinks. Longlining and LiveScoping have been the most productive methods
Male bass are showing up in the shallows. Those big females, no one seems to know where they are or they are being quiet about it.
No reports on catfish or bream. Reported by: Arkansas F&G |
