Millwood Lake Crappie Fishing Boosted by New Impoundment
Millwood Lake in the southwest near Hope Nashville Ashdown and Texarkana is filling with over 25 000 acres flooded. Crappie fishermen are already on the scene with minnows the top bait. The lake holds channel catfish bass bream and some northern pike all stocked by the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission. Millwood floods parts of Sevier Howard Hempstead and Little River counties. The U S Corps of Engineers opened 5 000 acres for open water but most of the lake remains timbered. Headwater fishing around Little River and Cossatot River should be good this spring with several access areas near Saratoga and Beard's Bluff now completed. The lake was impounded on Sept 1 1966.
