Lake of the Ozarks

Updated 9/2/2010

Lake Elevation at Normal Pool: 658.96 Temperature: 62

Inflow: 8127 cfs Outflow: 975 cfs. Level: 1.52 feet low

Lake Map

Report By: Old Oarhouse Inn         Braggin' Board

Mile Marker 81

 Lake of the Ozark water elevation is 657.85’. Truman lake water elevation is 706.73’. LOZ water temperature is 86 degrees Fahrenheit. Water discharge through Truman Turbines is 250 CFS and over the spillway was 0 CFS.

 Crappie: Slow Crappie fishing has slowed considerably since the water topped 80 degrees several weeks ago.  I was fishing with the grandkids this weekend and little Bruce IV caught a very small crappie on a worm but for the most part they are not biting right now and won’t until the water temps begin to drop.

 Catfish: Good This white cats or blues are off their nests now and they are hungry.  I heard some great stories this weekend of some great fish being caught just upstream from the ‘House’.  A couple of the fish were over 35# each. Shad bellies did the trick. Speaking of shad I’ve noticed huge schools of fingerling shad feeding on the top of the water right at dusk. You can’t miss them due to their feeding activity.  The average school was about 6’ in circumference and they were really churning up the water.  A couple of these on your hook will draw just about anything to bite.  I watched a guy toss a throw net over a school Saturday night and he hauled in dozens of the fish for his minnow bucket.  Be sure to score the side of the shad against the scales to ensure they emanate lots of shad ‘stink’ into the water so the big old cats can find them. 

 Carp: Good I talked to a couple of bow fishermen Sunday morning as they filled up their boat w/ fuel.  The two had been out all night bow fishing and had a trash can full of grass and buffalo carp to show for their efforts.  The said they were cruising in the about 3’ of shallow water in the bigger coves along the grassy shores and they used a 10,000 candle power search light to spot their fish.  This implies a 2 man operation but I know they had a ball shooting the carp.

 Large Mouth Bass: Good Bass fishing has slowed but it still remains good.  Coves and anywhere with structures are good holding areas for some of the lunker bass in the LOZ.  Rubber worms seem to work real good as does a surface jitterbug made by Rapala. I speak from firsthand experience about fishing at night w/ the jitterbug and hearing the water explode in the darkness followed by the heavy tug of a nice fishing setting the hook. Give it a try some night and you won’t be disappointed.

  Stripers: Fair I’ve had two reports of folks witnessing stripers slamming into some of the surface feeding fingerling shad I mentioned earlier. If you witness such a phenomena all you have to do is present any type of floating minnow and you’re guaranteed to catch fish.  Make certain your drag is set so you won’t be disappointed this weekend as I was!

 Walleye: Great The King and Queen of walleye fishing, Jo and Kim Gregory reported once again they had found the walleye, go figure!  Joe and Kim went out on his birthday and caught these real nice fish.  You mean your wife took you fishing on your birthday?  What a woman.  Actually Kim likes catching walleye more than Joe does sometimes.  Joe and Kim continue to fish in about 18’ of water off the drop off of the main channel.  He said he trolled Wiggle Warts and caught these awesome fish. Nice Birthday fish guys!

We endorse trophy fish catch and release!

Remember a bad day fishing is better than a great day at work.

Release Rate:  6080 Level: 6.88 feet high 

Lake Map

Report by: South Fork Resort 

We have seen a fair amount of turkeys come through here this past week so I must say hunter success looks to be pretty good in the turkey hunting arena.—–Lake level is still holding at about 606.5. I look for it to stay that way through the weekend unless we get hit with some of the rain that is passing by the area.

crappie a bit more skittish so they tend to spawn deeper.

There have been quite a few good catches this week, with the better catching being later in the day. I keep hearing about a lot of smaller fish being caught between keepers, but those reports all seem to come from the upper end of the lake. Down here we have seen some dandy fish and not so many small ones in between. Black and Chartreuse is the color combo that seems to be bringing the best bite for jig fishermen. The bite has been mostly close to shore, but not on the banks quite yet. Very close though.——

The catfishing continues to be hot with some very nice flatheads coming in.

Not a lot of blues in the last week or so though.

Plenty of channels are coming in with the flatheads. —–

 White bass are also starting to hit up in the rivers so now is a great time to tie on something white and flashy and give that a try. Clean them right and fry ‘em up fresh and they are downright tasty.—-I am hoping if we get some of this rain we may still be able to get a few mushrooms. It has been a rather disappointing year for them.

Report by Burton's Bait and Tackle     

 Crappie: Fair:  The crappie spawn is not here yet but we are close.   The lake is stabilizing since they have shut the water off.  The fish are moving toward the coves and are begining to become predictable.   People have started coming into the store and saying they are catching some nice fish.  Some are even being caught from the banks which usually occurs during the evenings.  We are still probably two weeks away from the spawn.  I always figure the spawn is in some stage during Mothers Day.   Fish along creek edges and channels leading into spawning areas.  6' to 10' of water.   I fished the lake of the Ozarks last week and the crappie are going great down there as well as Truman Lake.     Clay Co Parks put the Christmas trees in the lake during the blizzard last Sat.  Almost all of the piles were put inside the no-wakes at crows creek and campbranch

Fishing Report by Thompson Fishing Guide Service : www.fishstockton.com

Lake level:  865.60

 Normal Pool:  867 

Water clarity:  slightly stained

 Water temperature:  83 degrees

 Between Monday and Wednesday, the water temperature dropped from 86 degrees to 83 degrees; cooler nights contributed to this.  Fishing for all species has been fair and in the near future should be very good due to cooler temperatures.Sorry for my long absence in posting reports.  My wife has a continuing family emergency with her mother (who lies in Colorado and has pancreatic cancer), and as I held down the fort and continued to guide, posting fishing reports was low on my long list of priorities. 

We’ve had a good summer overall, in spite of 48 days of 90+ degree temperatures, with heat indexes of 106 and above.  By the way, if you were out on the lake on one of these days, that probably wasn’t the wisest thing you’ve ever done; it’s very, very dangerous.  The water reflects the sun back to you, so you’re getting a double dose.  If it is 90 degrees at your house, I guarantee you it’s a lot hotter on the lake, but I think those temperatures are about finished for the year. 

 We’ll talk about walleye first:  A large majority of the walleye being caught are too short.  Smaller fish tend to be more aggressive than larger fish, particularly in hot water; that’s why you catch more of the little ones.  The bigger walleye slow down considerably in hot water, and will spend a great deal of their time in the deeper, cooler water.  With the full moon phase lately, night fishing is your best bet.  The bigger fish will come up in the shallower water (anywhere from 10-18 feet) to chase the shad.  Trolling deep diving crank baits is a good way to cover a lot of water.  Fish the main lake points, and the mud flats.  One good mud flat is between B5 and B7; watch your depth in this area, though, because Stockton Lake is a couple feet below normal pool and this makes a big difference.  Objects that were not visible before (logs and rocks) are now.  Check out the dam and drift the main lake points with a jig and night crawler bounced off the bottom at a depth of about 18 feet.  18 feet seems to be the magic number no matter where you fish on the lake.  Many times when fish lay in deep water (45 feet or so), they are usually inactive.  When you scope fish in that 18 foot zone, those are the ones that will bite.  Where a fish sleeps and where a fish eats are usually two different places.  I predict in the next couple of weeks that walleye fishing will pick up considerably.

 Crappie fishing is slow, but when you find the right brush pile at the right depth you’ll catch fish.  There’s a lot of teeny weenie little baby fish in the lake right now, so match the hatch using small crappie minnows hooked with a small weight and drift over the brush piles.  Brush piles need to be about 25 feet deep.  Use a heavy enough weight to vertical fish, keeping the bait just above the top of the branches.  If it strings way behind the boat, it’ll get hung up in the brush.  Small jigs and little crank baits also work, but we have been catching them by doing what I just explained.  Night fishing over a crappie light is also good in these same areas. 

 White bass:  virtually all of our white bass have been taken by trolling deep diving lures like the Bandit across main lake points.  If you like trolling and breathing exhaust fumes all day, you should catch white bass. 

Largemouth bass:  As usual, Junior Jaws can be found in 8-10 feet of water and they’ll grab anything from small plastic worms, jigs, spinner baits, even top water.  These bass get in schools when they are this size (8-12 inches) and swim endlessly throughout the lake wreaking havoc on the shad, crawdads, and fishermen if they are trying to catch the big ones.  The bigger bass we have caught this year (3-5 lbs, no real big ones yet) have been in around 15-25 feet deep.  The best technique has been worms or jigs fished slowly.  You need something that will get to that depth and stay in their faces for an extended period of time.  With a ton of bait in the lake, these bass don’t move often from their zone to chase bait.  However, when they do, your best bet is either at night or just before dark.  Crank baits and spinner baits work well in the shallower water.  Since the lake is lower than usual, there is finally a visible shore line, so take note of the structure that you see out of the water; it’ll give you a good idea of what is actually below the water in any given area.  This is a real advantage no matter what kind of fish you fish for. 

 Shore fishermen:  now is your chance to fish about anywhere from the shore on Stockton lake.  Channel cat fishing has been real good.  In Hawker cove, Old State Park cove, or just about anywhere that you can cast to about 15 feet of water.  Use chicken livers (I use beef livers because you can cast them better) or night crawlers.

Fishing Good!

Yes, as I write this, the generators at Table Rock are OFF!  They followed their projection today which was no generation from midnight to 6:00 a.m.  Then two generators from 6:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m.  From 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. no generation.  At 6:00 p.m. they are scheduled to turn on two.  Yesterday was a low two generators all day as was the day before.  Nice, warm, sunny days so far this week, but we do have a chance for showers tomorrow and again on Friday, Saturday and possibly Sunday.  We missed them last week, let’s hope that is the case again this week. Stan and Carolyn had a rowdy group of guys on the water Monday.  Dan and Russ were with Stan, and Jim and Rich were brave enough to go out with Carolyn in her "Cackelcraft".  Little slow start in the morning on midges, but once we switched over to the sinking line with an olive bug-eyed bugger, the action certainly picked up.  Great day on the water.  The overcast sky gave way to a nice balmy, sunny day.  Continued catching fish throughout the run on either the bugger or the red tungsten beadhead midge.

Fishing Report from Sterett Creek Marina   9/1/2010

How about this we are finally getting some well needed rain. It's not coming in enough to change the lake but it should sure settle the dust. The weatherman is telling us we are going to has a perfect weekend with cool dry weather so it ought be a super holiday. Now if the fish will cooperate it will be super.  

                                                                                     LAKE LEVEL:            706.67

                                                                                     WATER TEMP:       83 deg.

                                                                                     WATER CLARITY:  Light stain.

 BASS: The bass fishing here on Truman is starting to pick up. There are fish on a couple different pattern but the good thing is they are hitting. The COE has slowed our water flow down to about nothing so the wind is getting to be an important item. The wind is moving the baitfish in the coves and across the points so this moves the fish in these areas. In the coves fish are in 7' or less water about 3/4 way back. Big worms and brush hogs are working on the edge of the creek channels. The point fish are just a little deeper on the ends of the flat points about 10'. Rigs are working out here with baby brush hogs and small craws. Might even try a tube. Last nights hawg fights were won by Howard Love and John Pollit with 9.36 lbs. They also had big bass weighing 3.58 lbs. 2nd. place went to Larry Wright and Hap Hartman with 7.71 lbs. Third went to Ernie Cox and Ozzie Wallace with 7.29 lbs.

 CRAPPIE: The crappie bite is improving on Truman also. We have been seeing more limits come in everyday. The brush piles have been working well in 20' of water. Tree rows in 10' of water fished 8' down are working in the bigger creeks. The deep tree rows off the bluffs 30' fished 12' to 15' down are also working. You have to work each tree pretty hard but if there are fish there they will bite. Minnows are still the best but I have talked to people using pepper spoons and jigs that are catching fish. Not every tree has fish on it but you can catch numbers off the bigger deep trees.

 WHITES: With the water slowed down as it is we haven't seen much on whites. Did here of some fish hitting on the wind blown flats. The fish weren't surfacing but dimpling the water in 4' and less. Rooster tails and small Rat L Traps were working on these fish.

 CATFISH: I weighed a 42 lb. blue last week and he had some other nice fish to go with. Jugs in 30' of water baited with cut shad. Said the fish bit early in the morning. With the water temp slowly dropping I would look for more cats to start hitting.

 That's it for this week from Street Creek Marina

 Good Fishin
