Is anybody planning on fishing the Finley this Fall/Winter? Appreciate any current reports. 

Just started using Ozark Anglers and hoping to see this section become more active in the future.

Looks like nobody wants to talk about the Finley. That’s okay, I didn’t plan on sharing my spots either. Just wanted some general conversation and maybe some pictures.

Really like that Ozark bass. I have only fished the Finley once and that was this last summer when we were back in MO.

Only had about 30 mins to fish, but caught a couple of green sunfish and an Ozark bass on a John Deere microjig under a float. Fished below the dam in Ozark MO.

Nice fish. I might’ve eaten that Ozark bass. What part of the Ozarks are you in? 

I'm not. I used to live in Columbia, but now actually live in Maryland. Have family, i.e., kids, living in MO and KS so plan to be back that way a few times per year.

@Johnsfollyoh I see. How’s smallmouth fishing in your parts? 
@Flysmallieyou must be trout fishing or something

I've been here over 2 yrs and have not caught a smallmouth bass in Maryland. A lot of that is me chasing new species. However the smallie fishing from what folks that catch them here describe is not as good as in MO. I have smallies shy from baits when I have actually fished for them. Miss those ozark creeks and streams.
