This is the first time I ever heard that Lake Arrowhead is beautiful.
Has the spring rains got the lake full.
It is standing pretty good right now - a lot better than the other area lakes. Kickapoo is only at about 40%, as I'm told. Wichita is, well, Wichita...too shallow for boating and constantly plagued with fish kills. It is more like a cesspool, in my opinion.
Arrowhead is like a woman, sometimes clean and pretty, sometimes ugly and dirty...but loved by those that care about her through it all. If you don't boat it (there are some neat coves), or if you're there after it gets all muddy (from low levels or torrential inflow), I can understand why some people don't think too high of it. It is, however, only four miles from my home, so we experience it at every phase.
The crappie fishing has been great these last few Springs. The Sand Bass are tearing it up right now. And I know people who go for the big old catfish, some of which are in the 40# range. The state park seems to be a lot busier this year; I guess more people are staying closer to home for their camping outings.
