Shoals Lake
Bull Shoals
Lake is a large reservoir,
encompassing 45,000 acres
(conservation pool) on the
border of Missouri and
Arkansas, as shown on
the Lake map (this is a 700 Kb Adobe Acrobat file and will
take some time to download for dial-up internet access; if you
need a reader,

The lake is managed
by the U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers for flood
control and power
generation, and is one of
a series of five lakes in
the Upper White River
Basin of northern Arkansas
and southern Missouri.
Bull Shoals Lake
circulates all year,
except during summer, when
the surface temperature
may exceed 30ºC. The lake
is clear, moderately
productive, and supports a
rich warm-water fishery.
