Trophy Bass Fishing

As the fall and winter give way to the longer days of spring, the reservoirs at Big Ditch Outdoors beckon you to drop a line in the water. Whether casting for a record catch or a fresh fish to fry, reservoirs brimming with catch-and-release trophy Florida Bass, crappie, bream and catfish are the place where fish stories are made.

Just as the mist rises from the water, the sun peeks over the horizon and birds begin their morning chatter, you'll feel the excitement of getting onto the water to reel in the big one. You wait silently and patiently, then unexpectedly, your line twitches and the struggle to land the big fish begins. Don't worry, we'll never tell that fish wasn't quite as big as you said it was.

NOTE: If you are 16 years or older, a fishing license is required to take or attempt to take game fish, turtles or frogs in Arkansas. Purchase your license online from the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission.
