Any Good Advice?

Coming down to Lake of the Ozarks thursday thru sunday. Fishing for crappie. Its our once a year trip coming down from Iowa. Staying at Runaway 2 Resort and mile marker 45. First time at this area of the lake. Normally every year we are somewhere around mile marker 10 so we are going to be lost for the most part lost. Have heard from someone of a couple big coves to fish in (buck creek was one) but was wondering if anyone could give me some land marks or resort names to look for to better hone in on some good fishing. Also... is there anything hidden in the waters of this area i need to keep my boat away from. Sure would hate to tear up a lower unit because i didn't know about a sand bar or rock pile.

I don't know anything about that area of the lake, but Buck Creek is at the 7MM, so that is a far run from the 45. I would recomend Buck Creek if you decide to go there though! If it were me I would just try the same techniques and types of areas as you would further down the lake and see what happens.
