Few more questions: Concerning the clicker feature on some reels. On my first trip, I was always "looking at my rods", which was a bit of a problem as I was having to work a conventional trolling motor with no lock mode to keep it straight. Don't own one of those great $1000-$2500 graphic sonar fish finders. Is the clicker "sound" a big plus? And while the price of the Okuma magma is great, does it have a clicker?? Wanting to buy the Okuma coldwater reel,,,, is the 203 D model big enough to handle a good striper?? My 1 and only striper so far was caught on an abu garcia ambassador 6500

Been reading and learning what I could lately about striper fishing. Took off Sunday (Jan. 3rd) with a friend, 4 rods, 2 planer boards and way too many brood minnows on my first outing. Put in at Prairie Creek about noon, (no clouds) as I had heard good things recently. Immediately realized I was in trouble not having a line counter bait casting reel knowing I wasn't sure how deep I was actually dragging my minnows with my 3/4 oz- 1 oz weights. I was trying to hit the 35' depth. Some how screwed up and caught this nice striper. Absolutely could not believe the strength of this fish. H

My streams here in S.W. Missouri are pitifully low now. I normally catch plenty of smallies here, but it looks like I need to move up toward the rivers south of the St. Louis area, which I don't know much about. Anyone ever been to East Central Iowa. Read something about the Wapsipinicon River. Suggestions welcomed. We will be floating/fishing in a canoe Thanks,

We caught these on 2 separate floats over the last 2 weeks of October on the Elk River watershed. Very slow bite and lucky to have caught these.

Forgot to add this 22" largemouth was caught in the Elk River watershed area of SW Mo. on a bitsy tube. No scale to get the weight

I have lost my contact info for Brian Bochert, who custom makes the perfect, weedless jig head for a bitsy tube. Does anyone know how to get in touch with him. Thanks, Bobby (C & R)

hey, MOsmallies,,,,,,,,,what's up with that fishing rig on the back of ur boat with some white lure bout to drag ur rig into the river?????,,,,,,,,,,,
-
all the pics I have posted have been from the Elk River chain of creeks/rivers here in sw missouri. And the crank bait has been responsible for all the big fish we have been catching. Topwater has surprisingly been very slow. And my usual soft plastics have not been catching very many descent fish either.

I knew there wouldn't be anything in Kansas. I was hoping someone would have some info on streams not too far away. In particular, south of Kansas City, Mo. Thx

Hey, I need some help on finding some smallmouth streams close as possibe to Lawrence, Ks. I know we will need to drive a bit. I am blessed with numerous streams here in S. W. Missouri, but I need to help someone locate streams up there that are suitable for float fishing. Thanks for any info. Bobby
