I fished this when I lived in Neosho...

This is a nice little stream that is a great little place to fish.. here are a few pictures taken by Britt (a Neosho local) and sent to me.. This pictures are from Morris Park (if I remember right that the park)..

Yep, drove by the other day. Looks like crap! Like I said, we need a good rain to wash it down. :) Altough I did hear a rumor that the city was going to clean out some of the park or at least where those pics were taken which is by the ball fields.

Hopefully after the cleanup some of that can be used for structure and to enhance habitat....Dano

I feel they should leave like 99% of that, and make the regs more stringent, stock some browns and make it a red ribbon stream if there is a forage base to do so. That looks very nice, and with all that timber, you could not help but to catch fish.

My understanding from Tbird who is the president of the Neosho hatchery that stock that creek, is that there is very little if any carry over during the summer period there, way to warm and low water conditions.

Not to mention the harvest of those fish during the fishing season.

Tbird? You talking about Dave? The hatchery manager? Anyways, you nailed that right Davy.
