Thanks guys appreciate it. We will just wait and see what the weather does and go from there. Thanks again.

Hey guys, I am looking to find out if anyone has seen any suckers schooled up? I am having my students do a project based on local traditions and was going to use Sucker Days as an example. Id like to find enough and fry em up for my classes. If anyone has any input please let me know. I know the water is up and dirty at the moment but any info would help. Thanks in advance!!!

Hey guys, I know this is mostly game fish board but I am doing a lesson over local traditions to end the year with and was wanting to use Nixa's Sucker Days as an example, since that is my hometown. I am trying to locate some suckers to go grab and fry up for my classes. I know the water is up right now and dirty, but any advice on whereabouts please let me know. I was down at powersite maybe few weeks ago and saw a couple school at the mouth of swan but its been a while since I tracked them like I use to. Thanks in advance, Ill also try posting in the other forums, but yall are pretty active on this one so I thought I would start here. Thanks,

I always say I am going to try other parts of the lake but when I get an opportunity to go I usually end up there because I can get unloaded and fishing my first spot within an hour of leaving the house. I wish I could have known the water temp to share but you are right without the electronics I do not. It was a peaceful evening regardless...love the Ozarks!

Went out for a couple hours around Cape Fair. Didnt go very far, I was blind as far electronics so I kept to locations I felt comfortable with boating around in. Not being able to locate fish made it a little difficult. Landed 2 fish in couple hours. LM came on a grub around a dock, had another decent get hooked then shake it out close to the boat. Switched to a swimbait just to see and cover some ground ended up hooking a beautiful cat. Hit HARD!!! fought for a good 10/15min..it was only about 2/3 FOW...I didn't weigh but I believe it was every bit of 8-10#s Didn't slay them but for the time and limitations I was happy

Had a decent day Friday, wasn't too busy and caught a few fish. Had a lot of trout nose up to a megaworm, Beetle, and Ant. Ones that I hooked came on a small black/yellow jig (some sight some under indicator). Didn't get to stay as long as I would have liked but still had a good time.

Tim, Thanks for the picture. Will your shop be open tomorrow? I believe Ill be heading down tomorrow afternoon rather than Saturday morning. DaddyO - I do not believe that is a requirement. I cant recall 100% so maybe wrong. Ill for sure know tomorrow, haha!

Awesome Fish!

Looking to head down to RR this Saturday. Birthday weekend and the wife is letting me sneak out for a few hours for my "present" ha...I know we had some really good rains this week but also know there are few days till the weekend yet. Is the river looking in alright shape? From what I read C&R opening went really well. Hopefully keep that going. Thanks for any info and advice. Thanks
