MAYFLOWER, Ark. – The Arkansas Game and Fish Commission voted unanimously Thursday to lift all daily length limits on the Craig D. Campbell Lake Conway Reservoir.
AGFC announced in June that it plans to drain the lake for renovations, the largest lake renovation in the agency’s history.
They are hoping to encourage anglers to catch as many fish in the lake as they can before it is drained.
Tabbi Kinion, AGFC Education Division chief, said that the agency has teamed up with partners to tag dozens of fish worth $500 each to the lucky angler that catches them.
“We’re excited to offer this fishing-style treasure hunt on Lake Conway,” Kinion said. “These tags are spread across six different species, so grab your gear and head out to Lake Conway today for a chance to win!”
More than 50 fish of all sizes were caught, tagged and distributed throughout the lake as part of the initiative.
