    Just reading it now. I am not sure how crowded it gets in the summer but I know it has to be better than the Eminence area. I really like the area. Had a nice visit with one of the neighbors down there. She was telling me about the rattlesnakes,copperheads, and mountain lions in her yard.

    Welcome to the group. i used to run up to Gullinipper in my bass tournament days. Great Creek! I grew up fishing Mark Twain in a 10' johnboat for catfish.

    Tons of whites in Twain, but it doesn't need any more predators. There are some mega walleyes still there, Just not alot of people targeting them.

    Thanks, might have to give it a try. I am used to fishing for largemouths on heavy line in dirty water. This finnese smallmouth fishing is fun. One of the cool things is being able to see the fish before catching them .

    Thanks Troutman, Those sound like great choices. Guessing that with the low water the deep pools hold alot of fish. Is a double back minnow like a jointed rapala ?

    Thanks PL Yep, same countryred different place.... I might have to try filleting those pickerel,..the smallies are safe, I don't put a knife anywhere near them. Our place is situated between Buck Hollow and the Blue Spring. Looks fishy when we have walked along the shore.

    thanks Al, love your work. We did catch several pickerel in that area and saw a really big one under the Alley Spring bridge. Are they good to eat? Are there enough goggle eye in the river to keep some for dinner? I don't want to hurt the resource. Thanks to everyone for the tips.

    A few years ago I caught one that weighed right at 5 lbs. in a northern Missouri river. We found a bunch grouped up around a bridge and caught more 2 to 3 pound fish than I ever have since. Guess they were grouping up for winter. Most were caught on jigs but the big one hit a split shot rigged senko. A few years later a big flood washed out that section of river and changed into a shallow falt gravel bar. Hit it last summer one morning and caught a 3-1/2 and a few smaller ones.

    We just bought some property near Mountain View, MO. The Jacks Fork is only a couple miles away. Any advice on fishing that stretch from Buck to Rymer. I have fishing down from Alley mill to Eminence in the fall and caught a fair number of smallies, all under 2 lbs, quite a few goggle eye, and some chain pickerel. Seemed like small plastics in natral colors were about the only way to get bit. Thanks for any help.
