Hey Bill, I talked to you at cow creek ramp Saturday morning, we were getting ready to fish a little jackpot. We ended up catching 18.40lbs, with a 6.44 and 5lbr, end up with 11 keepers, great day for the jerkbait. It was really good seeing you and talking to you again. Rod

this wasn't my personal best but I posted this back in 2011, my buddy caught this spotted bass in 2011 on jerkbait, weighed 7.26lbs. I doctored the photo a bit give him more of a natural state Arkansas boy look

I fished AiA as well this past weekend. We probably caught 40 fish, 15 keepers, all on the Arig except for 1 on a jerkbait. I threw crawler and jerkbait half of the day while my partner kept the Arig in his hand. We definitely had to be on the right kind of banks for the Arig, you couldn't just go down any bank and catch fish. We fished the Campbell point/ shell knob area. We ended up weighing 14.54 and took 30th place, we never had a bite bigger than 3lbs, needed a kicker. We knew we probably wouldn't be in the money with 14lbs, but 30th place? WOW! the rock really showed off this weekend. Great weekend, great fishing, and congrats to the teams that finished at the top, it was a tough field.

Does anyone know if you can launch at baxter or hwy H. Also is it dirty dirty in that area, ot just stained?

thanks for the info guys.

Does anyone know if you can launch at Mill Creek or not?

I was with TJ. It was an awesome day. We probably had 60-70 other blow ups we missed or they missed the bait. None of these were schooling fish either, all just running bank. Surprised we never saw any schoolies, but it rained almost all day day, not heavy but enough to keep them from schooln. I also got video of a snake with about a 6-8 inch waterdog in its mouth, swimming with it and trying to kill it up on the rocks, pretty cool. water temp was 68-70. Only saw one other boat on the water all day.

thanks stump

Anyone know if any of the weekly night tournaments have started on Beaver, any details on them?

I agree with you 100%. I too have had some issues with online ordering but nothing too bad, just kinda frustrating things in the past but I still love the selection and love going to the store when I get a chance. Everybody is very friendly when you go there, very good experiences. I too support both bp and local shops, love em all, they all feed my fishing needs. Things get blown out of proportion on this site, but when certain people do it, people take it as gospel. Same folks will have a thread going on FLW and how bad that organization is and how rude the fisherman are...blahblahblah, they too overlook the good economic value that they bring to this area and every lake they go to or every city a bp goes into. Everyone has opportunities to improve, we have to build on these not tear em down at every given opportunity.....SkeeterP out.

How many people you got registered so far ?

Hey Darrin I'll try and give you a call tonight.

sorry, no trades, just cash, looking go get something newer when I can afford it.

Motor is shot, or at least one cylinder is. I blew the motor last spring and was going to get it rebuilt so I held onto it, but I'm just going to sell it as is and get something newer later. The boat will still start and run or would the last time it tried. I believe it probably needs new power head or to get the cylinder/s resleeved, not sure. The carpet needs replaced, I've attached picture of the carpet coming up on the front deck, it looks worse now than in the pic that was taken over a year ago. The boat has a Motor Guide 109lb thrust motor, 4 batteries, 3 bank charger, Garmin fish finder, Skeeter life jackets, wheels, tires, trailer all in good shape. Would be a great boat if you have an outboad to put on a hull or if you want to go with the rebuild option. Boat hull, trailer, and accessories are easily worth $4300. pics are attached, $4300..OBO

nitro nick and I fished Saturday morning from 4:30 a.m. to 11:15 a.m. we only caught 3 before daylight on a tube on bluffs. We caught another 51 on topwater. Had a few on buzzbait right at daylight all the rest on spook jr. and chug bug. We caught about 20 on tw beating the bank and then they started schooling out in the middle. We were fishing between Owl Creek and Eagle Rock. We only had 6 keepers all off the bank, not schooling. Biggest was about a 17inch spot. All spots and large mouth, no smallies, and also had 1 white.
