Arrowhead Lake Fishing Guide

Angling Opportunities

Lake Arrowhead is recognized as a premier white crappie lake. Be prepared to share the water with many other anglers in spring, when limits of nice-size crappie are caught in the lower half of the reservoir. Arrowhead also contains channel, blue, and flathead catfish, with blue cats being most harvested. All three species can get big here: the lake record for channel catfish is 12.9 pounds, and for blues, 74.7 pounds.

Cover & Structure

Fish habitat includes riprapped areas along the dam and bridges and rocky shoals near the main lake points. Good amounts of standing timber remain in the upper end of the reservoir and in the back of most coves. Aquatic vegetation varies with water levels.

Tips & Tactics

Spring is the time to fish for white crappie. While crappie can be caught year round, the majority are caught during the spawning period. They'll be located in shallow water near shoreline habitat. The dam, state park area, and bridges produce stringers full of fish. Skirted crappie jigs with in-line spinners or minnows are the baits of choice.
