Beaver Lake, the largest body of water in northwest Arkansas, spans 28,000 acres with 487 miles of shoreline. Surrounded by Ozark Mountain scenery, it offers year-round fishing for all skill levels, with winter being prime for striped bass. Anglers can fish from boats, docks, or shorelines at spots like Prairie Creek. Known for top-tier bass fishing, the lake holds smallmouth, largemouth, striped bass, crappie, bream, white bass, sunfish, and catfish, with record-setting stripers over 50 pounds. The lake is also a prime spot for wakeboarding, jet skiing, and more watersports.
