Thread: Dardanelle condition?

Those who fish it more than me (twice this year), what's your opinion of the lake? I caught a bunch back in late spring/early summer but vast majority were too small. Went Saturday and the bite was slow but the fish I caught were healthy..and full. Saw decent numbers on brush but not what I would have liked to see. I have heard that the Bass fishing has been bad and I was surprised at how few boats I saw despite it being hunting season. Thanks

Thanks CA, sure would be nice to have it back to full potential so fingers crossed. There seems to be plenty of shad
