Lake Ashbaugh, located in Northeast Arkansas, offers a convenient boat ramp for kayakers, canoeists, and small boat operators. The ramp provides access to the Big Slough, a scenic waterway surrounded by a timbered lake bed. Boat lanes crisscross the lake, making it easy to navigate and explore the area.
The lake is known for its excellent fishing opportunities, with populations of largemouth bass, crappie, and channel catfish. Both bank anglers and those on the water can take advantage of the clean shoreline and abundant fish. While the exact hours and fees for the boat ramp are not publicly available, the site is generally open to the public for recreational use.
Paddlers and small boaters will find the calm, protected waters of the Big Slough well-suited for a relaxing day on the water. The lake's proximity to Delaplaine, AR, and its location within the Dave Donaldson Black River Wildlife Management Area, make it an accessible and picturesque destination for outdoor enthusiasts.
