Report by: South Fork Resort  I

Boy was I wrong. I figured about 621 on the lake level, but it topped out at 624.5 instead. As a result of the rapid rise some of the smaller ramps are closed. the Corp ramps are open, but the docks are pulled for now. the State Park ramps are open and those docks are still in place.

Crappie fishing has been pretty spotty this week. Gonna have to start over in locating them now. They have been doing good on the blue cats using cut bait and goldfish. —-According to the weather report we should be in for a great weekend. 70 degree’s in November is always welcome for the fishing, though the hunters would rather not see it.—

We have heard of a lot of ducks taken last weekend! Don’t forget our 2nd anniversary party this weekend. Mary and Conda have been doing lots of painting to spruce the place up.

POMME de TERRE

Updated 10/30/09

Lake Elevation at Normal Pool: 839.0 Temperature:

Inflow: 260 cfs Outflow: 2800 cfs Level: 3.54 feet high

Lake Map

Report by Pomme Muskie Guide Service

Fishing below the dam at the outlet pool will not be allowed for approximately two years. the Corp of Engineers is doing some upgrading to the “stilling basin” and the tube leading from the lake to the river.  Fishing above the dam is slow with the rapid fluctuation of the water the past three weeks, they have been turning on and turning off the water making for a dis-oriented fish population.  The lake right now has risen back to 845 which  is 6 feet above normal pool.  They will drop the lake to 843 and hold it there until the water fowl season is over and then drop the lake for the spring rains. 

 Have talked to several bass fishermen and they were catching bass until the water started coming up again.  Things should pick up again with the white bass starting their fall feeding spree.  All other fish I would say you just have to hunt for them. 

Any questions about fishing don’t hesitate to call at 417-993-0035 and I will let you know what information I have gleaned from the people who fish on Pomme de Terre.

Good luck from Pomme Muskie Guide Service.

Report by River Run Outfitters 

Table Rock Lake now at 916.2.  They increased the generation quite a bit this morning and are releasing water from Beaver.  Only time now will tell what is going to happen with the generation.  Last I heard, we still have chances of rain Sunday.  Hope for very, very light showers!  

Stan out yesterday with Phil and his daughter, Dana.  They are from Kansas.  Phil had been out with us earlier this year and had a good time.  His daughter said he likes to go various places and fish and that she loves to travel.  She thought that traveling places to fly fish together would be great!  I agree, what a way to spend quality time with your Father.  Anyway, this was Dana’s first time with a fly rod and she did quite well.  Their best patterns were the ruby midge and pink San Juan.

Fishing Report from Sterett Creek Marina   10/28/09
 
 Well it's that time of the year again. This will be my last fishing report for the season. We will be closing down for the season Nov. 1. I will start the fishing reports again the first part of March. It seems like this year has flown by. As I look back it has been one of the better fishing seasons we have seen in several years. The crappie size has been good all season and the numbers the same. The bass fishing this year was super. When it takes close to 20 lbs to win tournaments that's some good fishing. The cat fishing was excellent all year. Lots of good sized blues. The whites and hybrids were a little slow moving down to main lake last spring but once they got here the fishing was great. Lets hope next year will be as good or even better.
 
                                     LAKE LEVEL:         713.7
                                     LAKE TEMP:           57 deg
                                     WATER CLARITY:  Light stain.
 
BASS: The bass are still on their fall pattern. 1/2 way to all the way back in the creeks on the flats. Spinner baits fished along the cedars has been a good bite. 2' to 4' of water seems to be best. There are also some fish on the secondary points in 8' to 10' of water. Jig and frog has been working on these fish.
 
CRAPPIE: We had a few good crappie reports this week. The crappie are holding on brush piles in 25' of water. Jigs are the best right now. The fish seem to be holding right on top of the brush. There were also fish caught off the bluffs out of 35' of water down about 25', here again jigs were the best.
 
WHITES & HYBRIDS: Seems the weir has cleared up enough to get these fish all excited. We saw several nice hybrids come in. Best bait was a 1/4 oz. jig head with a 3" orange and chartreuse jig. Fish were holding right off the bottom. There were also some fish on the road beds in the Little Tebo area. Between spoons and deep running crank baits the were some nice whites caught. These fish have bee in about 16' of water.
 
CATFISH: Jugs have been working well for blues. Perch along with Little smokiest have produced some nice fish this week. Best fish are coming out of 25' of water down about 20'. Close to points seems to be the best areas.
 
 I would like to thank all the people that have sent ataboys for the fishing report, they were appreciated. We would also like to thank all the folks that came to Sterett Creek this year and hope to see you all in the spring.
 
Till next spring
 Good Fishin
 Tommy
