Well I havent heard much lately about Morgan Point but after the weather we got this week and the high flow in the river, I would say that Morgan Point should be good right now!! It might be up a little but should be back to normal by middle of next week. As for this year, Morgan Point has been unreal but it also received a lot of pressure too. Since the river was up most of the summer, a lot of people went to Morgan Point. Even though the river was up, it helped Morgan Point. Since they let alot of water out below Pool 2, it caused Morgan Point to go up and there was alot of flooded vegetation. This resulted in numerous 20 pound sacks and even some in the 25-27 pound range. As for the largemouth population as a whole in Morgan Point, it looks GREAT. We sampled numerous fish in the 3 to 5 pound range and even some bigger than that. As for the white bass and striper below Pool 2 dam, Im not up to date with that yet. Still in the process of learning the area and fisheries besides the bass and crappie populations. There should be plenty of water coming through the dam for the next couple of days which should make these fish bite. We did sample once below the dam looking for sauger and we didnt find any of them but we found LOTS of big spotted bass. Our best five would have gone in the 14-15 pound range and that is huge stringer of spotted bass for the Arkansas River. We also got some 4-6 pound largemouth, too. So dont rule out fishing for spots and largemouth if you are below Pool 2 Dam. If you have anymore question feel free to ask. Jeremy
