Carp
Carp fishing in Lake Village, Arkansas, presents a unique angling experience within the Mississippi Delta. The oxbow lakes, like Lake Chicot, offer ideal habitat for these often-overlooked fish. Look for carp in shallow, weedy areas and near submerged structure. Spring and early summer are particularly productive as the water warms and carp become more active. A local technique involves using dough baits or corn, pre-baiting your chosen spot a day or two in advance. Public access is available at Lake Chicot State Park, offering bank fishing and boat launching facilities. Be aware that the carp in this area can grow to impressive sizes, so be sure to use appropriate tackle. Unlike some pressured fisheries, the carp around Lake Village are generally less wary, offering a good chance for success.
