flyrodman Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 I'm already planning out what creeks and rivers I'm going to fish this summer. Are there any good smallmouth creeks and rivers close to the Springfield area? Thanks. Luke Walz
ozarkgunner Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 Yes but people are tight lipped about most. Beaver creek is a good spot. Angler At Law
Jack Jones Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 Heard about Beaver. Never been. Is it wadeable? Where do you access? Can you paddle it? "Thanks to Mother Mercy, Thanks to Brother Wine, Another night is over and we're walking down the line" - David Mallett
Terrierman Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 James is closer and every bit as good for another option.
flyrodman Posted January 21, 2013 Author Posted January 21, 2013 James is closer and every bit as good for another option. I live about 2 minutes from the Joe Crighton Access. I have fished there a lot but have very little to show for it. I have only caught one dink smallmouth out of there. Is the fishing different at the other accesses? Luke Walz
Flysmallie Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 On the James, the closer you get to Table Rock the better it gets.
Flysmallie Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 Yeah I just meant it gets prettier. There are still no fish. Just bears and mountain lions. Lots of them.
