I had to look at a map, I had forgotten what that access was called. I haven't been there in some years, but there weren't many trees if I remember right. It would be alright for a 12 footer though. The lake is up and if I remember right that area is pretty flat, so the lake is probably spread out some there.

That access is really way up the Pomme river close to Hermitage, no lake water there unless the lake is way high. You might like the area west of Fristoe better, go west on CC until you get to the lake, haven't been there for a while but you use to be able to put in on a major cove, well protected with good fishing, great fishing for crappie in the spring. Actually if you get some good lake maps and do some exploring there are lots of places on Truman where you could put a small boat in and have some very good fishing. Just look for old roads that head toward the lake, you might want to check some of these out before you take the boat and gear some are useable and some aren't. Good Luck!

Thanks Guys we went over there yesterday and the river was up and rolling.Checked milage and its not that far from our Cabin and found couple other places closer.

Got to thinking combo Camping,Hunting and Fishing not sure if I trust leaving High $$$ gear for hours at a time so will probably just stay at the Cabin.

Finally went to Salvation Army in Springfield and got a Hide Away Bed for the Cabin so I have a place to set and sleep.Now all I have to find is a Heater and T.V. and I will be Uptown.

I'm not sure where you are from the Little Pomme, but it used to get a good run of whites in the spring, before Truman. The old highway that went to Fairfield, from the east, might be worth a look, that area doesn't get hit real hard by the wind.

If you cross the Bridge going towards Fairfield Ramp from the East our Cabin is on the Left as you get across the Bridge.There is several Coves I can put in,most aren't Bad with Small Boat I just worry on some if t6he wind comes up but know if it does get my tail back to Land.Like I told my wife alot of it is in a persons head as far as Large Deep water.Look at it as a Small Lake in a Big Lake,just don't get out too far and wear PFD.

Don't how far you want to travel but there are some areas on the South side of the Grand arm that can be reached from Z highway where a small boat can be used and some great fishing be had, unload boat and start fishing. Otter creek is one and Finney creek another. Where 82 crosses Weaubleau creek is another, any of these places can become windy just depends on which way the wind decides to blow. As for camping out if you are not in a designated camping area the corps can write you a ticket and I wouldn't leave anything laying around cause it probably won't be there when you get back. Good Luck!

We go up by Osceola Snagging plus up on the Sac fishing.Yea i know about camping on Corps Land,bunch get around that by putting a Line out and Staking it and Corps has let the slide in some places.I was thinking of camping on MDC Land.But no use with our Cabin there.
