Welcome BassCat
Anglers to Norfork Lake
The members of the Norfork Lake Chamber of Commerce welcome you
to the 2010 BassCat Boats Owner Invitational Tournament.
For your convenience, the Norfork Lake Chamber of Commerce is
happy to provide you with Norfork Lake area information with the hope to
make your visit more enjoyable, comfortable, and wildly successful.
If this is your first visit to Norfork Lake, please check out our
on-line lake map. Norfork Lake is a big lake so you
might want to get oriented before your arrival. Detailed fishing maps are
available from most resorts, marinas, and bait & tackle shops.
Typically, the BassCat Owners Invitational Tournament takeoff point is
between Panther Bay and Henderson.
Lodging
Stay at one of the Norfork Lake's many
resorts. The Norfork Lake Resorts eagerly await
 your arrival. Our resort
owners can provide you with lake fishing and area maps, direct you to
their favorite fishing hot spots, and provide you with a wealth of local
fishing information. Most resorts have bait and tackle, ice, and grocery
essentials.
Resorts are located throughout the different
areas of Norfork Lake. Many have docks with launch ramps on-site or
nearby. Those that do not have private docks are located near commercial
marinas that rent boat slips and have hard surface launches. Norfork Lake
resort lodging is convenient, friendly and personal. Staying at a resort that has a fully equipped
kitchen gives you freedom of choice when it comes to mealtime. And if BBQ
is important you, use your resort’s grills. That’s one less thing to
pack!
Experience the Lake Lodging Advantage. It might
be that edge you’re looking for.
Marinas
There are ten
marinas
conveniently located around the lake. You don't need to pull your boat
out and trailer it to a gas station for your fuel needs. Most marinas
carry high performance ethanol free fuel for your outboards. Need a
mechanic? Certified mechanics are available to help solve that unexpected
problem.
Our marina stores carry a wide selection of
boat supplies as well as bait and tackle. While you're stopped for a
refueling check out the souvenirs, grab a cold drink, bag of ice, or
sandwich. You may want to rent a boat slip while you're here. All marinas
have slips available. Make your trip a one launch trip. The Norfork Lake
marinas welcome your visit.
Restaurants
Breakfast, lunch and dinner are all available at the Norfork Lake
area
restaurants.
You aren’t far from that fresh cup of hot coffee, slice of homemade pie
or made to order meal. Our Norfork Lake restaurants provide that personal
attention that just isn't available in the chain restaurants. You can eat
"chain" food when you get home. Norfork Lake has a variety of restaurant
types. Mouth watering steaks or prime rib, homemade desserts, omelets
made the way you want them, pizza, and sandwiches. You can find a
restaurant to suit your mood. Want a restaurant with a view? Want the
comfortable convenience of a roadside diner? Want a cold beer and game of
darts? Try our Norfork Lake Chamber of Commerce restaurants. Sample our
local cuisine. You'll be glad you did.
Bait &
Tackle Shops
Our
Norfork Lake tackle shops
are great places to pick up that lure you've been wanting to try, get
your Arkansas fishing license, advice on current lake and fishing
conditions, and that fishing tip only those in the fishing business can
give. Get it all near the lake. Maps, ice, propane, groceries, hot coffee
and cold drinks are available without the long lines found in larger
discount and grocery stores. Get in, get out and get what you want. They
open early and close late. Norfork Lake stores are convenient, friendly
and ready to serve you.

Fishing
Norfork Lake
The 2008 and 2009 spring rains and subsequent
higher water events produced phenomenal spawns of bass and other Norfork
Lake species. The Arkansas Game and Fish Commission predicts that
starting with the 2010 season,
fishing
on Norfork Lake
will
be incredible for years to come!
