I remember when walleye were talked about being caught just upstream from beaver long before I had ever seen one in the lake myself. I wonder if it was from stocking, or from them coming from Table Rock? Makes me also wonder if the walleye stocked there stay there, go upstream, or down into Table Rock.

They make a spawning run up from Table Rock, how far they move up and down the White river channel is a good question. Arkansas gets it's brood stock from the walleye that run up the White from Table Rock. Most of the fingerlings generated from these fish are released into Beaver lake, but some go back into the White below Beaver dam and some are released into the Kings.

Bfishin put together a good post on the whole walleye reproduction story as it pertains to Beaver and Table Rock, you might be able to find it if you do a little searching.
