I live in Springfield and I would like to know where the best fishing holes are nearby. I fish the James, Capps, and Niangua pretty frequently. Just wondering where the secret spots are!!!!

Secret spots huh? Do they have to be good secret spots or just a secret spot that sucks? Because I have a whole bunch of them I can share with you. But I feel like your question implies that you want it to be a good spot. A really good spot. So if I knowingly gave you a bad spot I'm afraid that I would be liable for you being able to catch a fish. Heck even if I gave you one of my secret really good spots then how can I know that you can actually catch a fish there? Are there any guarantees from you? Again I might be able to be held liable for that information even though it would be your own failing because you can't fish or the fish just aren't biting the day that you go. I'll have to consult an attorney before I feel comfortable giving any information.

    It wouldn't be a secret if you told somebody :) . I know smart arse answer and cannot help as I don't fish in that direction. I have found my own secrets by exploring, exploring and more exploring. Then add trial and error to the tenth degree. When I do find that secret and can repeat it year after year in the same conditions it is more gratifying what I have accomplished. 

  Girschwynn, in the numerous posts in the forums where you like to fish the answer you seek is there as the good people on there have shared in the past. If you read that and maybe PM with more unanswered questions you may need.

There are only three things in life that are certain : death, taxes, and the wind blowing at Capps Creek!

Yeah I agree More so it sounds like you really think anyone on here s fool enough to give up there best  fishing spots plus ways and mean so you do not have to work for them like most of us have. All  you need to do is be in the right place at the right time doing it the right way. That is the greatest secret there is to fishing. Sounds silly but it is very very true. Now go find out what it truly means.

Hey I find plenty of my own spots. Just lookin for some new ones. Just thought I would give it a try. This community is usually SO HELPFUL!!!!!!! lesson learned, lesson learned

  We are helpful. Put in some time and you will find places on your own. Much more gratification, guaranteed. So no one gives up their spots. Now ask about methods for catching what you are after and there will be so many opinions it will make your head spin.
