As March ushers in the first signs of spring, the waters come alive with activity. Hungry bass move into creeks and coves in search of crawdads and minnows, crappie gather around submerged brush, and walleye patrol the banks for their next meal. This marks the start of a fishing season that lasts all year. While spring and fall offer peak conditions, summer is equally rewarding with excellent bass, walleye, and striper fishing, along with plentiful catfish and panfish for anglers of all ages and abilities. Thanks to Lake Norfork’s nearly mosquito-free environment, night fishing under the lights for crappie and white bass is a favorite summer pastime.
Whatever your fishing style, we’ll help you find the perfect spot and teach you the best techniques—or, if you prefer, we can connect you with an experienced guide.
