11 - 15 - 2023 Fishing Report. With so much going on right now I’ve not posted much. But here is what I have. Lake is fishing hard it’s a day to day on the bite. If you find them and get them to bite you have a good day. Lake is four feet low and the weather has been great but no rain. I plan on being on the river in a few days to see what’s going there. If it’s slow I’ll head to lake to see if bass and crappie will bite. Good Fishing.

10 - 19 - 2023 Fishing Report We got started around 7:30 and headed to an old dock that I have fish before. Just three cast and two fish in the boat then a few minutes later a third one. Then things slowed down so we jumped around to get a limit the weather and water were great. I have a plan for next trip so we’ll see how that go's.
9 - 6 - 2023. Fishing Report Getting out early in mornings before the heat get high is a must. Cooler nights help bring water temps down witch helps the fish go shallow. We were fishing brush in fifteen feet water this week. The bite was good early with good numbers and some keepers. Next week the highs will be in mid 70’s so thing will start to change. I’m looking forward to cooler weather. Crappie are still around twenty feet deep in brush and docks. They should go to points if we get wind and lower water temps. I like a flat sided crank bait that runs close to ten feet deep. You may catch white bass with the crappie.
8 - 11 - 2023. Fishing Report It’s been a couple weeks from my last post but it’s been slow fishing for big fish. Dog days of summer is here for me. I’m catching numbers of bass but big fish have been hard to come by. Their not running water so that doesn’t help the big on main lake. I think a shallow bite is there but most people can’t get to them. Crappie are biting but they are back under the docks and hard to reach for people. The good news is water temp is dropping with all the rain. It’s still an early bite from day lite till the shade is gone.
7 - 27 - 2023 Fishing Report It the end of July and believe it or not the lake is full of water and in the mid 80’s . Fishing has been good for numbers with a few good bass at times shaky heads, jigs and drop shot have worked we have to get out early to get the bite but that sumner fishing Crappie are in 20 to 35’ deep brush and docks they too feed early but you can catch them if you can get to them I’m doing four hour trip and by the end fishing slows way down so people are ready to find a cooler place to be
7 - 14 - 2023 fishing report We’ve be jumping from the lake Ozark to the Osage River this week. Had a small mouth trip Wednesday and we got them along with some spotted bass, drum, walleye, and black bass The lake is producing bass as well but it’s an early bite. I have to jump around but if we find one we find two or three.
6 - 27 - 2023 Fishing Report The weather is getting hot so we’ve been getting out by day light and fishing till 10:00 or 12:00. Bass are deeper on main lake in brush.small worms, jigs and drop shot are catching numbers and a few nice bass. Crappie are in twenty to thirty feet of water around brush and docks. Again I’m out at day light so we can get to those on docks. The higher the sun get the harder the crappie are to get to. We need rain badly as the rivers are low and real clear. The best thing you can do is go out at first light.
