I agree with you on the gravel las time i was there knocked out a trailer light and the boat is always so dirty after you leave. I always here good things about the trout pit. I have fished alot of the smaller pits and always caught alot of bass but it has been a few years since i have fished them.Kansas fish and game puts good fishing reports on ther website might check them out.
I have fished it a very nice lake loaded with crappie lots of short ones. Big bass that can be hard to catch. You might try bone creek by arma.Nice crappie big bass and eyes.More timber and cleare water thn big hill.
Sage 6wt 9foot launch rod and sage 6wt perfomce taper line for sale. $150 or might be willing to trade for some 10 or 12ft crappie rods.Im in joplin mo but will ship just add shipping to price.
I have to disagree withyou on that. Ihave a hummingbird that is less than a year old and the tempquit working.I called them (i did have to spend about 15minutes on hold)and they sent me a new transducer free of charge that was at my house in 3 days.
Tar creek has cleaned up alot in the last ten years or so. When my dad was a boy he used to swim in it and slay the crappie in it said it was eceptionally clear. Maybe some day it will be again. I havent seen it flow daylight orange in quite awhile
Tar creekis just above the i 44 bridge on neosho river. We caught about thirty Anytime the river is up and muddy like it was they will stack up up in creeks and and sloughs. Tar creek from were it dumps into neosho up it a mile or so has always kept fish int it. This s just my two cents on white bass they are way up river by now. If you have a jet prop go up as far as you dare and hit the eddies and gravel bars.
