New To Fayetteville, Where Do I Go?

[chundler]

I'm fairly new to fishing in Northwest Arkansas and me and a couple of buddies have had a very unsuccessful past few weekends after multiple spots. We've been looking for these prime smallie fishing holes we keep hearing about and have tried the Kings at the bridge at Marble, a couple of spots along highway 21. So far, all we have caught in the Kings is a few keepers and a bunch of tiny smallmouth. Last weekend we tried War Eagle Creek and didn't catch a thing and the week before, we had very little luck in the middle fork of the White River. These waters look promising, but are we just going to the wrong spots? We are looking for some great wading spots if you could offer any help?

Thanks!

A few keepers and a bunch of tiny brownies don't sound too bad to me! Sounds like you're going to the right places, just make some tweaks in your patterns/lures.

If your catching any fish right now, then your doing good.

Lack of current, low water, hot temps, etc.

I would downsize my baits and only fish early/late.

the places you mentioned have big bass

What is the best access for Lee Creek?
