Centerton, Arkansas, provides access to some excellent largemouth bass fishing in the Ozark foothills. Northwest Arkansas is known for its clear-water reservoirs, and nearby Beaver Lake and Lake Elmdale are popular destinations for bass anglers. Spring and fall are the most productive times, as the bass are more active in cooler water temperatures. During the spring spawn, target shallow coves and points with visible cover. In the fall, look for bass chasing baitfish in the backs of creeks and along main lake points. A variety of lures will work, including crankbaits, spinnerbaits, and soft plastics. Both lakes have numerous boat ramps and access points. Local tip: Pay attention to water clarity; in clear water, use finesse techniques and natural-looking baits. Beaver Lake is known for its spotted bass population as well, so be prepared to catch both species. Also, check the regulations as slot limits may apply.
