Striped Bass
While not as widely known as other Arkansas hotspots, Big Flat offers a unique opportunity to target striped bass in a more intimate setting. Bull Shoals Lake, though a drive, is the closest major striped bass fishery. The White River system is stocked with stripers, and some of those fish migrate into the lake's tributaries closer to Big Flat. Targeting these fish requires some dedication and local knowledge. Best times are spring and fall, during the striper's migratory runs. Consider trolling large crankbaits or swimbaits in the deeper channels near creek mouths. Access can be tricky; a boat is almost essential to effectively cover the water. Be sure to check the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission stocking reports to see the latest striper releases. The stripers here might not be giants, but landing one in this scenic Ozark setting is a rewarding experience.
