  1. One of them was on top, and one was on a swimbait.
  2. Welp, this has turned into a bashing thread so time to shut it down.
  3. Nice fish Bill! Interesting that the shad are still spawning, they were spawning a couple of weeks ago.
  4. One more thing - we got checked by the warden when we were done and in the lot. 4th time the MO wardens have checked me on Table Rock. Only once in Arkansas. MO leads AR 4-1 on Quillback checks.
  5. I have some radishes coming in now and pea pods. Didn't know squirrels would go after radishes, guess I better pull them soon.
  6. Hey, I was at the dam area myself today. My buddy Ken and his BIL were out there too, and the striper karma was with them. For me, not so much, I caught one 3 lb. striper. The smallmouth were biting well, they are post spawn and hungry. I caught a couple dozen, a few on top, but most on the Keitech.
  7. I don't know for sure, but I think the phrase "Drop Shot" isn't something Dutch wants to hear. 😃 So I don't mention it.
  8. That's pretty neat, good deal!
  9. The pavilion is right by the Corps ramp. It's been a while since I have been there, but I think it might be a couple hundred yards from the marina to the pavillion. I'd be happy to give you a ride over, I'll PM you my cell number
  10. I am bringing the grill, salmon sounds wonderful!
  11. What's the name?
  12. Here is who I have coming, if anyone else is in, reply here so we know approximately how much food to bring. M&M C4F Bill and Phil SmithvilleSteve Myself MagicWorm Man Cheesemaster Steven
  13. The fishing was tough for mid-May, but glad to be out there. Thanks for the trip Dutch.
  14. Shoot, I thought you'd go and show them some real squirrel cooking!
  15. Springdale Arkansas. Here is their seal. Marty, are you going? @BilletHead "Non sicut pullum".
  16. Raining like crazy here in Bella Vista. I'll bring some spinner baits.
  17. They did not weigh anything, so couldn't tell you what that smallie weighed.
  18. Rain on the radar scared me away. Couple of early top water fish caught by Ken and his BIL.
  19. Talked to Ken today who went out this morning with a buddy of his. They boated one they estimated at 20 Lbs. and broke off another on a mishandled netting that they think went 30 or more. On top water baits. Top water bite ended fairly quickly. Best to get out there early and hope you find them soon, at least if you want to catch them on top.
  20. From the Corps Facebook: We are experiencing a technical issue with our water control servers so there is no water control data populating on the website or app at this time. Our techs are aware of the issue and are diligently working to resolve it. Once the servers are back up and running again we will let everyone know. In the meantime, you can still access the NWS or USGS features through the app and on our website to check water levels. Thank you for your patience.
  21. Wondering that myself. They've were running water out of Beaver non-stop before the gauge went down which may account for a part of the rise.
  22. There's some in the area around the dam. I like to go on calm mornings and look for top water activity to locate them. I don't think that the bulk of the fish are in the dam area however. There are certainly enough to fish for, but I'd bet there are more somewhere else on the lake.
  23. Fished out of my friend Ken's boat today. Some stripers were coming up early, but by 0730 or thereabouts it was over. Ken's son Kellan (Not sure if I spelled it correctly), caught one good striper and 3 smaller ones. His dad and I did not do so good, we picked up a few smallmouth. I had a couple of striper blowups, but could not connect. Kellan's striper blew up on his topwater, missed it the first time, but came back and exploded on it the 2nd time and the fight was on. It made my day just to see that fish blow up like it did.
  24. Nice fish! I have a buddy that is camping at Indian for a few days and I plan to go with him one day while he is there. We'll be looking for a top water striper bite.
