i know there are some creeks that dump into crane that have wild trout to. i was wondering if anybody knew where any of them are.
-
where are the twim bridges at?
-
hey fish bork. did you catch these fish by the corn maze? if you did then were you upstream or downstream stream of it. just wondering cause i have a few friends that own land on the river right by the maze
-
i dont no the roads name. just stay on the road that passes the mill. both of the accesses right by a bridge.
-
its the pond above the dam. i just call that the mill pond becuase of its location and there are some more ponds at capps
-
fish right around where capps dumps into shoal. there should be some trout from that point on up the stream cuase the hill creek lodge trout also get washed into shoal.

There used to be a trout hatchery where the Corn Maze in Verona is. Trout that escaped from there were washed into the Spring River. I think I read on the MDC website a while back that they did stock it with trout in the early 1900's and they were found successfully reproducing. So unless the river has changed alot since then the trout should still be able to reproduce. The trout in Shoal Creek probly came from Capps and a few other creeks that have trout that also dump into Shoal

what ever you do dont get there at 1:30 in the morning. i did that last year with some friends. we were the first one there, but it seemed like forever waiting for the siren not that many people showed up till around 3:00
-
its good to hear that the weeds are gone. they basicly destroy the mill pond in the summer. there are some good fish in the mill pond to.
-
there are 2 places right on the creek that you can park. the first one is right next to the park and the second one is just down the road to the right. its easier to fish by the first access. the second access is a lot weedier. if you fish the first access walk down the creek a ways becuse the fish in the open water are really hard to catch. their not spooky at all they just wont bite a hook. so walk down to the woods that are right on the water and your chances of catching fish will approve alot
-
been a few months since i been down there. the water above the dam looks a lot clearer to. was there a lot of weeds above the dam? ohh and thanks for the pics sounds like you had blast
-
at last someone to back me up when i say that there are huge trout in capps. i wish i could of been down there fishing to. and i thought that that ice storm might of killed off all the armidillos
-
shoal creek has trout everywhere in it thanks to a bunch of little creeks that hold trout dump into it. but you will have to do a lot of searching to find these creeks.
-
i think i read about some crreks around branson that people stock with trout
-
i fish capps a lot since i live right by. and ive seen one or 2 inch trout in there before
-
thanks fishin, the darn mussles have been worring me a little
-
all private land except for shoal and i dont know if the spring river has any public areas. i just know the fish in the spring rive are from a closed trout hatchery. and shoal creek trout are mostly around where capps dumps into it at. the flat creek does have a trout fishery thats open to the public[its in cassville city limits]. but its very small. its also really expensive. flat creek has one more place further down stream that stocks trout. that part is loaded with them. but its all private land.
-
just a quick correction jeremy. this monday would be the 18 not 17
-
i know people who stock each of the creeks that i have listed except for quocicana. i have caught trout out of there though. i dont know if the trout are trully wild. i just know they have been in there a long time so they are a little on the wild side
-
i was wondering if anyone kows how bad are they on the lake now
-
i did notice as table rock goes up tany goes down
-
they do reproduce, but its not that commen because only a little bit of the creek is spawnable and the creek floods alot in the spring destroying most of the nests. the wild ones are mostly caught between the 2 bridges. there is a few wild trout above the the water fall on the private land. the creek might be more spawnable if it was cleaned and had the erosion problem solved.
-
rainbow trout at capps reproduce naturally. when you hook into one of the wild ones they will put up one heck of a fight. you might think you hooked a real nice fish on till you see it. its a amazing how hard a wild fish can fight. but the best way to tell if they are wild is by their color. if they are duller they are hachery raised. the shiny ones are wild
-
any body know of some unmarked trout streams in missouri. the ones i know of are quorcicana[i think thats how its spelled] which is located near purdy MO, the spring river in MO, flat creek and little flat creek, a creek near Fair View MO, and shoal creek has a few seemingly wild trout thanks to capps creek and one other creek that dumps into it.

id use l spin tackle and minnows if you want to catch more fish. the are fish are very unpredictable. one day they'll eat anything and the next they won't even look at a lure or fly. if you use a fly rod id go in the evening. thats when they usally start feeding real heavlly.
