Best Bass Waters - Bassmaster-ND - 03-30-2004
This is from Field and Stream
Arkansas
State record: 16 pounds 4 ounces, Aaron Mardis, 3/2/76, Mallard Lake
Best water: Arkansas River below Little Lake Pine Bluff. “The river here is basically a series of lakes between locks and dams, and it’s consistently the best big-bass water in the state.”
—Jeff Williams, assistant editor, Arkansas Wildlife magazine

Sleeper: Austelle Lake, Cross County. “It’s in an out-of-the-way spot in the northeast corner of the state, so it doesn’t get much pressure, but it’s steadily been producing bigger and bigger bass.”
