Information
With around 32,500 acres of lake surface to accommodate boaters and
fishermen, the fishing at the lake is good throughout most of the year.
Arkansas Game and Fish Commission has stocked every game fish native to
the State of Arkansas.
The new world's record hybrid bass weighing 27 pounds, 5 ounces was
caught on Greers Ferry Lake by a local guide in April 1997. He fought
the fish for 25 minutes. Jerry Shaum of Shirley knew he had a huge fish
on the line. He held on until the battle was won. He was trolling in 45
feet of water.
The Little Red River feeds Greers Ferry Lake. A world-class fishery
for brown trout and rainbow trout, the Little Red River produced another
world record fish: a 40-pound, 4-ounce brown trout, in 1992, beating the
earlier record catches of 28 to 29 pounds.
