Welcome aboard Mike, from a fellow Missourian (Mexico,Mo). I get down your way from time to time for some of that great Taneycomo trout fishing.

Mike and Dave----I just want to say hello from another Missourian (I am from Columbia, Mo.) I have never been down in the southwest corner but there are several streams I would love to try----Right now I have 3 kids in college so money and
time are tight but hopefully in the future that will change----I fish mostly ponds, some lakes and some streams here in the central region.

Gary,
Have you fished for the winter trout at Bechtel any this year? They stocked Plunkett Park lake here in Mexico. The lake is just a block from my house. I had some luck earlier but it's now frozen. Dave |

Dave---I have not fished Bechtel yet, during the warm spell I manage to hit a couple of ponds for bluegill/bass--not the best fishing but it sure beats laying
around the house. I have been by Plunkett a couple of times (no fishing involved)---do many people fish it??

Hi foambug/Mike;
This is a good place to learn about flyfishing for Bass, Bluegills, and other warmwater fish. Plus this is a real friendly group with members from all over the US. Finally, when life does not allow you to fish, someone here will post a fishing report to keep your spirits up! Waynebh |

Welcome! Some 10 years back, I used to spend about 1 wk/mo in St Lois on buisness. Never got around to fishing the area ( due to schedule, lack of knowledge
and non FF buisness partners) but always wondered about teh warm water opertunities! Still do

Hi Mike,
A couple of other MO streams to try are the Niangua river and the Huzzah. Although both suffer from a fairly lively Aluminum Hatch come summer 
The Niangua also has Bennett Springs on it for some excellent trout fishing, although there are very large Smallies usually holding right where the spring creek pours into the main river just outside the trout park in the eary spring. tightlines Paul Ballwin,MO |
