Siloam Springs Lake is a popular fishing spot in Arkansas, known for its abundant catfish, bass, and crappie. Nearby activities include hiking, camping, and boating. Fishing tips include using live bait for catfish and soft plastic lures for bass. The best time to visit is in the spring and fall when the weather is mild, with an average temperature of around 60-70°F. In the summer, temperatures can reach up to 100°F, so it's important to stay hydrated and take breaks in the shade.

FEATURED FISH - AMERICAN SHAD

The following are fishing methods used to catch this fish: This is a silvery fish with a single dorsal fin in the middle of the back. There is a large black spot directly behind the top of the gill cover, followed by 4-27 spots, which are generally smaller than the first. Sometimes there may be a second row of spots below the first, and more rarely, a third row below the second.They closely resemble the hickory shad. The most important physical distinction is in the lower jaw. In the American shad this jaw fits easily into a deep notch under the upper jaw, whereas, in hickory shad the lower jaw protrudes noticeably beyond the upper jaw. Also, the American shad grows considerably larger. Both occur up and down the coasts, but the American shad is predominantly in southern climates.
