: Lake Ouachita: Todd Gadberry at Mountain Harbor Resort and Spa (870-867-2191/800-832-2276 out-of-state) said black bass are good. Try a topwater bait near main lake and secondary points. Carolina-rigged craw or lizards are still producing, and the floating worm bite is good. Just get out and throw your favorite lure! Walleye are still fair and being caught on jerkbaits and green soft plastics. Stripers are good. These fish are being caught in the western portion of the lake and can be caught on C-10 Redfins, live bait or Alabama rigs. Bream are fair and being caught on crickets and worms in the 15- to 25-foot range. Crappie are biting fair. These fish can still be targeted on shallow structure with minnows or small jigs. Jugs and trotlines are producing quality catfish catches over main lake points with live or cut bait. Water temperature is ranging 58-62 degrees. The clarity is stained and the lake level is 575.92 feet msl. Call the Mountain Harbor fishing guides (Mike Wurm, 501-622-7717, or Chris Darby, 870-867-7822) for more information. Capt. Darryl Morris of Family Fishing Trips (501-844-5418) said, Its that time of year again. Crappie are scattered and can be caught as shallow as 3 feet deep and as deep as 12 feet. Live bait and jigs both produce ample numbers of crappie. White bass, hybrids and striper are on the move schooling. I have harvested limits trolling crankbaits and Alabama rigs. Spoons vertically jigged just off the bottom work well, too. Reported by: Arkansas F&G |

| About: - Situated among the beautiful pine forest, Arkansas's Lake Ouachita is the largest lake located entirely within Arkansas. It is known for its scenic beauty and clear waters. Created when Blakely Mountain Dam impounded the waters of the Ouachita River near Hot Springs, the lake is virtually surrounded by the Ouachita National Forest and has one of Arkansas's most pristine shorelines at some 970 miles.
