We pulled up a travel trailer from Arkansas Friday night and stayed in the state park. It was a dreary day Saturday but sure wanted to fish. I didn't have a way to pull my boat too so had to settle for fishing off the bank and courtesy docks at the ramps. I was surprised to catch a couple of smallies right off the bat. Caught a 17" smallie, had to release it since he took a long time to grow to that size. I am partial to smallies, especially since some lakes to our south have so few. Caught a couple of nice blacks as well, one a little over 15". Have to say that I didn't expect to pick up keepers from the bank, but sure has me interested in coming back with the boat sometime. What a good looking lake. I am used to tablerock and this lake just has a different look. Look forward to next trip.
