Guide

[Teddy]

I purchased a place at LOZ last year. I really enjoy bass fishing but have not had much luck in the last year. I am wanting to get a guide to help me. I am not sure what time of year would be best. I do not want to get a guide in the spring during the spawn. Any help on who and when would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Teddy

Teddy, you might consider joining one of the bass clubs as a non-boater, you'll likely learn a lot and make a bunch of friends.

Teddy wrench is right. You can run with some very good fishermen in those clubs. I have no idea what clubs there in this side if the lake. I was in bassin bandits with wrench but I do not think they exist anymore.

i was wondering what mike marker your in since sunrise beach covers a lot of area. I live out of Laurie and rarely leave the Gravois Arm myself. I do not and am not qualified to guide and do not know much about other areas.

This last year I think has been spotty all over the lake as far as bass fishing goes. I had a terrible year here on the Gravois.

My bass boat is in the garage. So I can travel anywhere on the lake. I am used to fishing Table Rock. Huge difference. My condo is at the 13 mile marker on the big niangua. I do not get down but maybe 6-8 times a year. I am open to any options. If this has been a more difficult year, maybe I should wait a year to get a guide?

Thanks for continued input.

hey, we're neighbors. Can't help you much on bassin', love the crappie fishin, a little white bassin' too. in fact the white bass have been showing up under the 54 bridge.

I do know some people who do nothing but bass fish and they love fishing from the end of sept right up until thanksgiving. I always hear them talking about throwing spinnerbaits and run them right next to docks.

I'll fish docks that time of the year, but only for crappie, and I do manage a few LM and spots accidentally.
