[Fishin' Freak]

I have heard some good bass reports coming out of the K-City area up to Campbell Pt. Where is Campbell point located??? Are any other species (crappie, whites ect) going at all around the Kimberling area?? What is the water temp around there? I plan to get out Sat. and hit the water. Thanks in advance!!!

Campbell point is about 6 miles east of Shell Knob up the White River, I think that would be about 17 miles from K-City bridge, Not sure where, or if they catch WB this time of year around K-City but you should be able to find some crappie. They are certainly there and you might do surprisingly well. I'd start looking in decent sized, shallow basin coves with some shallow flats in the ends. Check out the flats in 10' of water or less around trees. If you can see bottom at all you are too shallow probably, Colored water would be good if you can find some. If they are not there, fish in the trees along the creek channels 15-20' deep (or more) in 25 feet of water or more. Later in the day I'd sure check back on the flats if was sunny and the water warming.

Water temps should be low 50's in channel and a little warmer back in some shallower coves in the afternoon.
