Eureka Springs, Arkansas -- Jon Conklin with FishOn Guide Service (479-233-3474) said Beaver Lake remained in the 1,120-feet-msl range. That’s a tad lower than normal pool (1,121 feet msl). Water temps are in the lower to mid-50s. The lake is in really good shape right now, and if we do not have any huge rains, this looks to shape up for a good spawn.

Stripers have been very good as the fish migrate south for the spawn. Look for flats in 10-25 feet of water. Shad is king, as always, on this lake.

Crappie are in their full spawning colors and moving up to the banks. This will only get better. The War Eagle arm was on fire last week.

The walleye have mostly finished spawning. You now can catch them from Twin Bridges heading back toward Blue Springs.

White bass are up in the river and have been good at Twin Bridges. Black bass are pre-spawn and doing well. Look for areas close to spawning flats and look for them to commit to the banks.

“Fishing pressure will increase, so be good and patient while launching and fishing. It gets a little crazy this time of the year. Be safe and good luck!”
