Clifton Eoff of Rogers shows a spotted bass he caught at Beaver Lake in December 2008. The length limit on spotted bass, also called “Kentucky” bass, at Beaver Lake will be lifted effective Jan. 1. Anglers may keep any size spotted bass, from big ones like the one Eoff shows here, to the smallest. The Arkansas Game & Fish Commission voted earlier this year to eliminate the length limit.
