Thanks for the quick replies guys. Very helpful...I just wanted to be sure that throwing a shad net was legal here when trying to get fresh cut bait? If we try Stockton, we will be arriving to camp on a Thursday. Do you think reservations are needed this time of year?

Debating where to fish next Thursday thru Sunday. Main objective is crappie - but will try for white bass or blue cat if the crappie aren't keeping us busy. Contenders are Truman (where we have been many times; Eufuala in Oklahoma (where we have been once and had a good trip) and Stockton (which we have never been on but always wanted to try). If we pick Stockton since we have not been on it before we'll need all the advice we can get - both on where to fish and where to camp. Any help greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I will be at Table Rock for a family vacation July 7 -11, staying at Vickery Resort which is near Table Rock State Park. It is only the second time I will have been on the lake (and the other time was way up the James River arm). I know the lake is best known for its bass - but I mostly go for and have the gear for catfish and crappie. I have a 20' Xpress Jon boat w 90hp, so I'll be mobile but not wanting to fight the cabin cruisers to run too far. Any advice or tips wold be very much appreciated. Thanks.
