    Default Large-Scale habitat project on Bull Shoals Lake


    The large-scale habitat project on Bull Shoals Lake has been completed. Over the past two weeks (seven actual working days), Fisheries Division personnel (40 total) worked to replenish existing habitat sites on the lower end (Oakland to Dam) of Bull Shoals Lake. The original goal of this project was to replenish 61 sites in Howard, Big and Little Sister Creeks (marked in green on the map below). Due to the hard work of the staff, we were able to replenish those 61 sites and an additional 34 sites for a total of 95 sites. The additional sites are marked in white (Barnes Bay and Dry Run Creek), purple (Noel Creek) and yellow (Jimmie Creek). We estimated over 500 trees were used during this project to replenish the 95 sites.
    Replenished sites will be updated on the AGFC Mapper after the first of the year.

    Mac daddy,

    We plan to replenish sites in Norfork on a smaller scale in 2018. In the next couple of years, we will have a similar large-scale project on Norfork. Hopefully, we can replenish over have the sites in that large-scale project.

    This time, we placed brush perpendicular to the shoreline. We tried to place brush from 10/15 feet on the shallow end to 30 feet on the deep end. Of course, that varied depending on location and bank angle.
