Went below 64 HWY Bridge, was slow caught couple Little Rainbows. Went on down to Barclay caught 4 Keeper Rainbows on White Power Bait.
Camp Sites were full, Outfitters were very busy and had to watch it on narrow roads. Everyone making money. This is a Good thing.

You can tell Truman is running more the way it is going down. Told my wife we could fish by our Cabin but it is still too muddy. Once everyone quits running water on the Lakes and everything settles down might be better fishing. Seems water going down Catfish don't want to bite.

I went to Pomme de Terre Lake this morning. Soon as I got there it started raining. The Lake has really went down but it was just raining too much this morning to even think about fishing.

Ok figured it was like Truman. They will close Ramps. Of course it is bad when the Parking Lot is under water.
Still going fishing in the morning.

Your more in the know. Just when I was over there water was up in the Timber by the Dam and Dock was still way out there.
Going back in the morning.

Ok maybe you saved me a Trip. Water is still coming down which is never good.
Maybe change of plans. Fish Niangua River and do some Rifle Shooting.
Thanks Tehmilz4

I found Barclay good. But I was fishing with Power baits.
We are getting inch or two of rain every couple days keeping the river up and down a little.

I went down to the river about noon, 5/18, it is up but floatable and Rainbow Trout are biting.
I didn't float but I would be watching for Trees more than river level.

I went down to the Niangua River checking it out. Yes it was up and yes it changed.
Seems they are releasing more and better Trout into the river. I caught Limit in an Hour with Orange and White Power Baits. Nice Heavy Stringer.

Ok just drove to the river this morning they still had the road blocked to the Wooden Bridge.
River is back in its banks so Spring should be good.
