Arkansas Lakes Fishing Report

Lake - Bull Shoals10/09/04 :

Dam area to Lead Hill: If it is a calm day Jewel spider jig in green pumpkin / green flash with a green pumpkin twin tailed grub on long gravel points is still your best bet. If it is windy fish windblown gravel points and flats with a spinnerbait or rattle trap, the presence of shad will help the bite. A drop shot rig or spoon over deep water in and around schools of shad is taking a few fish but with shad on the move this bite will go away soon.

Lead Hill to Power site: If it is windy throw a white / chartreuse spinner bait on windward pea gravel flats, look for any laydowns or wood in the water and concentrate on it. If it is not windy, fish a Jewel 5/8 oz. football jig in PB&J with a cinnamon purple twin tailed grub for a trailer on the same points and flats. Move the boat out to about 20'-25' of water and slowly drag the bait back to the boat. another option is to fish an Eakins' jig in missouri craw with an Eakins' craw in green pumpkin around boat docks.
