Ouachita is known for huge striper and catfish as well large schools of crappie and other bass.

Mark Davis has good tips for bass fishing https://m.bassmaster.com/tips/mark-davis-guide-lake-ouachita

If you need any supplies or live bait I suggest stopping by Trader Bills in Hot Springs where you should be able to get lots of fishing advice to go along with the supplies.

Here is another Mount, in Innsbruck, that you can ski off of apparently.

Last time I was in Innsbruck an officer pointed a MP5 at me for speeding through the tunnel. I was in a French rental car so it took a while to find a language we could agree upon.

weather is looking GREAT! for the weekend,

lows 68, highs 89 and no rain,

I was already looking for ways to back out, boat cover is starting to tear, so I'll be towing topless, rain, worry about my truck tires, trailer bearings, cold water,,,,

This looks to good to miss,

towing topless

Take the rear cushions out so that they do not blow out and you will be fine.

Everyone that I am aware of coming is planning to camp on Saturday night.

We plan to choose that island Saturday morning.

Typically insects are an issue near the banks of the lake but not on the isolated islands.
