Wife and I Draggin the Boat
Got the Hot Spots Map
Got the GPS (the old, no map Garmin style,,never got lost yet!)
Got a guide
got a room near Rogers

Any general information on early May crappie, and Beaver fishing in general at that time of year would be appreciated. Any info on the Pea Ridge Battle Field, good places to eat and sight see would also be appreciated.

First time to Beaver Lake.
We usually take a couple-three trips a year. Walleye, bass, crappie, muskie, whatever mixed in with a general vacation. We live on a lake and within a few miles of some great rivers and lakes so we fish quite a bit.

Picked Beaver because its a good mixed bag & Eureka Springs, Pea Ridge Battle Field, dining, sight seeing etc. Looks wonderful!

Specific for crappie, we'll have some B&Ms and spinning gear. But won't be able to set out huge spider rigs.

Thanks
