Missouri Lakes Fishing Report

Lake - Pomme De Terre 12/17/05:

The most consistent bait has been an Eakins’ jig in Missouri craw with a green pumpkin Chomper jig trailer. Fish it from the bank to 25’ deep on deeper points, bluff ends and channel swing banks, if you encounter brush or other cover fish it very thoroughly, most brush piles are holding fish right now. If it is a windy day move to mixed rock points near deep water and throw a rogue or Lucky Craft pointer, this time of year you can catch a mixed bag of good sized fish off of one point if the bait moves up.

Crappie fishing is still a little slow but you can catch a limit if you are patient, white 2” squirts, live minnows and tri-color grubs have all been effective.
