sandbc Posted April 19, 2013 Posted April 19, 2013 Im leaving this morning for my much anticapated crappie fishing trip to Arkabutla lake in Mississippi. Was going to go two weeks ago but the temps there have been much like here so I postponed the trip in hopes of warmer weather to kick off the spawn. Temps looked great down there first three days this week but now have dropped off as this cold front and rain just went through there this morning but a gradual warm up is forecasted. I will be there for five days so hopefully I can catch some of those three or four pound crappie they brag about. I will try to post while there. Being a flood control lake the water level changes there dramaticly with any rain fall needless to say the lake is way way up after two big rainfalls the last two weeks. Oh well at least we will have fun staying at the casino hotel in Tunica. Get the crappie fired up on Stockton while Im gone so I can come back to some good fishing here next weekend. Good luck this weekend guys. Stacey

Quillback Posted April 19, 2013 Posted April 19, 2013 Good luck and please let us know how you do. I fished Sardis last summer and that lake is full of crappie, I imagine Arkabutla is similar.
mrgungho Posted April 19, 2013 Posted April 19, 2013 Sandbc...trust me..don't worry about it. You are going to catch some of the biggest slabs of your life. PMA! Gungho "Some go to church and think about fishing, others go fishing and think about God."
Members Muskie Bob Posted April 19, 2013 Members Posted April 19, 2013 Good luck. Thanks for mentioning the lake and staying at a Tunica casino. That sounds like a good combination. I assume there are outlets to charge trolling batteries. I may have to consider a trip next year. Have fun and will be looking for a report. Thanks,
