catman70 Posted December 21, 2005 Share Posted December 21, 2005 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? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Simsmarine Posted December 22, 2005 Members Share Posted December 22, 2005 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seth Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
