MO lakes r nothing like SD lakes

[SD bass hunter]

Man these lakes down here are huge. I appreciate your guys comments on what they are biting on. It helps me out a lot. Fishing down here is totally new to me. In South Dakota the fish don't go deeper than 6-7 ft. So any help that I recieve is greatly appreciated. Anyways I am going to MSU in Springfield. I pulled my boat all the way down here. Does anyone know of any bass clubs that wouldn't hurt my money situation right now?

P.S. If anyone knows of any duck hunting spots I would like to know thanks...

Can't help you much on the Bass clubs, but you are only 3-5 hours from the best duck hunting in the world. Anywhere on the Mississippi Flyway east of Springfield from... say... Cape G (?) down to Stuttgart, Arkansas. Depending on water and weather, you can pretty much go anywhere and find public land or rice fields to hunt.

I just moved here from Jonesboro, AR (3 1/2 hours east on 60 and down 63) and you can find plenty of duck hunting in the rice fields within a 60 mile radius of Jonesboro.

Again... Conditions dictate... but if everything is just right, you will see more ducks than you can shake a stick at... pit blinds in the rice fields are for lease on a yearly or day to day basis. In the AGFC public land, you can get in a blind on a "first come, first serve" basis. But your best bet is to get with a guide or someone who hunts there a lot the first few times...

I'm sure there is someone on this forum that can help you with your Bass angling addiction...
