Ok, love it or hate it? I really expected to see some responses by now?
Arkansas Crappie Fishing Association Preliminary
2011 Tournament Schedule
Keeping in mind the original goal of the tournament, each tournament stop will be focused around a “pattern” of Crappie during each tournament for that given time of year. Each tournament will be focused on these different patterns where different techniques are used as well. Listed below are the tournament locations, dates and patterns or topics to be discussed after the tournament from the winning teams. I divided the state into three regions: North, Central and South, pulling two lakes from each region. It seemed to be the fairest way to do it.
Lake Date Registration Place Tournament Pattern Lake Master
Conway May 7th Bates Field & Stream Post spawn (shallow water) Midsouth Man
Dardanelle June 25th Dardanelle State Park Post spawn (River systems) Midsouth Man
Greer's July 23rd TBD Summertime cranking/trolling Creekslick
Greeson Aug. 13th TBD Fishing man-made structure TBD
Arkansas River Sept.10th Coast Guard Landing Summertime River pattern Crappie Pro
Millwood Oct.22nd TBD Fall Crappie Patterns TBD
ACFA State Championship will be held Nov.19th and per the tournament rules, the lake will chosen by the heaviest winning stringer of fish from that years previous tournaments.
The TBD's I need help with so if you guys can step up and volunteer to be a Lake Master on Greeson and Millwood, it would be a great help!
As you can see, I have volunteered Creekslick and Crappie Pro for Greer's Ferry and the Arkansas River!
The tournament for Conway next weekend is in full motion already and Bates Field and Stream is excited to have us there.

Nothing is set in stone, chime in. Name some good lakes down there. I drive to Mississippi to fish so I won't mind driving to South Arkansas.

I should have titled this "Preliminary", sorry. I am not familiar with southern Arkansas lakes so please help out. I need two from the southern area. I believe the North and Central maybe covered?

Could go out of Merrisach Lake for a SE spot. Good crappie in the lake and you also have Post Lake, Moore Bayou, AR River that are in easy running distance. There is a store right before you go into the lake that has minnows for live bait folks. Nothing else around there though. About a 2 hour drive from LR.
What are the entry fees and such or has that been decided yet?
