What can Millwood Lake Guide Service do for you?Millwood Lake Guide Service can supply tackle, photography, cold drinks (no alcohol) and snacks, assist in area lodging reservations or state park and RV reservations, etc. Reasonable rates quoted. From beginners to seasoned veterans. Millwood Lake is approximately 35,000 acres w/13 gate dam and 12 parks operated by the US Army Corps of Engineers, and the Millwood State Park operated by the Arkansas Dept of Parks and Tourism. Fed by 3 rivers, it is a bass haven. Cypress trees, laydowns, stumps, hydrilla, coontail moss , deertounge grass, eel grass, Lilly pads, and standing timber fill this lake to the brim with bait fish and huge bass. Lake record Largemouth bass is over 14.5 pounds, with numerousothers taken in the 10-13 pound class very recently. The next Arkansas state record Largemouth likely swims in Millwood.
About Millwood LakeSince 1988, the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission, southwest Arkansas Division, in its regular stocking program into Millwood Lake each year, have successfully introduced almost 2,000,000 (million) Florida strain Bass to the population. Purpose: to improve the gene pool of Northern strain of Largemouth Bass. Why: The Florida sub-species live longer, grow larger, and fight harder. Recent studies and AG&FC shocking survey statistics indicate the Florida strain Bass' gene is taking root in the population in the F1 and F2 generations. Even purebred Florida strains have been noted in the F1. As of this year, another approx 150,000 Floridas have been added. Sizes of the introduced Florida Bass ranged from 2" and 4" Bull size fingerlings, to 4-8 pound brood adults. Tags were added to some brood adults with an 800 phone number to the AG&FC and its own unique fish ID number. If you are fortunate enough to catch one of these tagged fish, and call them, AG&FC will give you a free 1-year fishing license for the state of Arkansas. Venture to guess how large a 16 year old Florida Bass can grow, given Millwood's fertile ecosystem, cover and enormous shad population? State record size at worst, and world record size at best!" Prime spawning cycles (including the pre-spawn) begin in mid-to-late February and last through May on various parts of the lake. Summer, June-September can be a top water bonanza on this reservoir. Buzz baits, baby torpedoes, pop-r's, bass assassins, zara spooks, spit'n images, all draw ferocious attacks at the surface, on Millwood. Fall schooling activities usually begin in mid-to late September and continue through November, depending on cold fronts . It is common to catch numbers of 50 to 200 and more Whites and Blacks in the fall when the White bass run begins.
