I've never heard of any one mentioning a walleye run below the dam on the Osage, but I imagine they're in there. Anyone ever tried?

For reasons I don't fully understand Catman, They just aren't there in numbers worth the effort.

My theory is that because the bottom is covered in nothing but sand/silt below Bagnell, making it good habitat for mid-column fish like white bass/crappie, and chum grubbers like catfish. The walleye and black bass don't feel "at home" there.

A few years ago while fishing below bagnell we found about a 10-12lbs walleye floating dead on top of the water. It might have came through the turbines though and that is how it died.

Sure was a dandy though.
