New To Missouri

Hey All,

I just moved here to Bolivar from Raleigh, NC. I am a first year grad student at SBU. I usually fish out of a kayak but did not bring it with me for the first semester to make sure I focus on my grades. Any advice on good places to bank fish would be more than appreciated however. I can't just go cold turkey... I'm looking forward to being part of the fishing community here.

SBU is a good school have had a few friends go there. For fishing my lord there are so many places, Stockton, Truman, Pom the rivers and creeks its hard to just name one. I would start around Stockton for sure though.

Thanks! Is bank fishing any good at Stockton? Once I get my kayak out here I'll definitely be hitting the bigger waters. For now I'm stuck on land though. I'll be going after bass, fyi. I appreciate the info.

Cant Speak for the Bass or bank fishing, When I go up there is Walleye and Crappie time. There are many on here that fish it and could be more helpful about bank and bass.

Check the areas around the ramps, bridges, and the spillways first. Below Truman has plenty of good bank fishing . We used to fish around the bridges on Stockton and caught a little bit of everything.

First 3 places that come to my mind would be the area at the city of Stockton and the state park. Both of these areas have a lot of shoreline to explore. I know the area at Stockton has a good low bank.

The second area would be the Little Sac. It's a popular stream with some good access. Do a search on here and you'll find loads of information.
