Eureka Springs, Arkansas -- Guide Austin Kennedy (479-244-0039) reported that there was no change from last week’s report on Beaver Lake tailwater.
He said, “We still have some high water we are dealing with, but the bite is still good! Most of the fish we are catching are between Spider Creek and Houseman Access. We have had great results using various Fire Baits and Fire Eggs. When the Army Corps of Engineers is running water at the dam, drifting a Fire Worm has been the preferred method. You may have to move around a bit, but the bite is definitely there.
“If you’re looking to put some walleye in the boat, try trolling a size 5 Flicker Shad. There are some males that are still being caught in the 10- to 15-feet-of-water range.
“Let’s hope the rain stays away for a bit to allow the river to drain down some. Don’t get me wrong: I really like fishing the high waters, especially when Table Rock backflows. That can bring up some baitfish, which can also get more fish biting.
"Remember, for additional updates follow my Facebook page (Busch Mountain Fishing Guide Service); I’m pretty much on the water every week. Feel free to message me if you have any questions. Take care, get out and catch some fish!"
