On the lookout for anglers

We've been searching for anglers and cell phone service.

We've been searching for anglers and cell phone service on the upper end of Bull Shoals Lake. We're finding more anglers than phone service. Here's a quick rundown:



  • Zell Rowland was struggling at 9:30 and had only one keeper in the boat.


  • Mike McClelland was culling at 9:45. He said he'd caught 7 keepers and had about 11 1/2 pounds.


  • Bill Lowen at 10 o'clock is "catching the snot out  of them" and has about 11 pounds. He caught two  on two casts as we pulled up  to him.


  • Boyd Duckett just boated past us. "That's the first boat I've seen in here in three days," Lowen said.
