Beaver Lake: As of Tuesday, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers reports the lake's elevation at 1,114.68 feet MSL.
Southtown Sporting Goods (479-443-7148) said water conditions are normal. Crappie fishing has been good in 10-12 feet of water around underwater structure on minnows, jigs and tube jigs. Catfish are biting well on trotlines. Bass fishing is fair on light-colored spinnerbaits.<br />
Beaver Tailwater: McLellan's Fly Shop said there has been very little generation during the last few days, providing plenty of wade-fishing opportunities. Scuds, sow bugs, midge pupae patterns and cream midge adult patterns have been very productive. Fall and winter are great times to fish egg patterns as the brown trout make their annual spawning run. The best flies have been McClellan's hunchback scud (sizes 14-16, gray or olive), McClellan's woven sow bug (sizes 14-16), zebra midge (sizes 16-20, black/copper or olive), poison tung (size 20, gray/blue or black), cream midge adult (sizes 22-24), flashtail mini egg (sizes 16-18), unreal egg (size 16).<br />
Lake Fayetteville: Lake Fayetteville Boat Dock (479-444-3476) aid all species are slow.<br />
Lake Sequoyah: Lake Sequoyah Boat Dock (479-444-3475) said all species are slow.<br />
Sugarloaf Lake: Midland Minimart (479-639-9467) said the water is clear and low. Crappie fishing has been good on crickets. Bass are biting well on lures.
