First time fishing ozarks and at that I’m night fishing

[Fishinglife]

This is my first time in the lake and I’m night fishing which I’ve never done. I’m taking off in the gravois arm. Can anyone help with what kind of set ups or what lures they have had luck with

I'm sure you've read all the recent LOZ posts so I'll just add this. A good squarebill and cover alot of water don't worry about being too shallow. I've heard dark spinnerbaits also. If deeper the monster worm.

I'll tell you this, water wasn't flowing towards the dam in the Gravois Arm since they are dumping more water into the lake from Truman than they are releasing.  Or at least that's what I found this past weekend.

True!   And I haven't been out to confirm....but when it is backwatering in the Gravois the bite is typically pretty tough.  So my advice is: If you aren't getting bit where you think you should then run out of the Gravois and fish closer to the dam.
