8. Greer's Ferry Lake
  
  Sometimes overshadowed by the incredible tailwater trout fishing below the lake, this beautiful lake in north-central AR has all the common sport fish of the region, plus Walleye and Hybrid Stripers, for which the lake currently holds World Record status.

  Man made pits built years ago when coal and other minerals were mined in S.E. Kansas. Many of these pits were left, filled with water and stocked with fish. There are public areas, clubs and private land with pits.
