It was a happy birthday for Calan, a young angler from Kansas, who caught this impressive 25-inch rainbow on the Beaver Lake tailwater recently. We would say this birthday trip to northwest Arkansas worked out wonderfully. Thanks to Austin Kennedy of Busch Mountain Fishing Guide Service, a weekly contributor to the Fishing Report, for passing along the photo. More of Austin’s report is below, where he says there are fish to catch, but like everywhere else around Arkansas, some rainfall would do the area good.
Reports are updated weekly, although some reports may be published for two weeks if updates are not received promptly or if reporters say conditions haven’t changed. Contact the reporter listed for the lake or stream you plan to fish for current news.
