Lake of the Ozarks Fall Fishing Report

Lake of the Ozarks fishing is still a bit slow with the water temperatures still in the mid 70’s. Crappie are biting early on main lake bluffs, but you’d better be there by daybreak.

Bass are slow as well, which is evident by the small 15 pounder that won this weekend’s tournament. Front of docks with jigs and shaky heads seem to be the best patterns.

Once the water cools down some more look for the white bass activity to really pick up. In the meantime, make sure you get in your boat and check out the beautiful fall foliage that surrounds the lake.

We caught a nice blue catfish last week off my dock, mid-afternoon while watching the Bears Game. Similar to the tournament winnder, it was likely in the 15# range. Caught it on shad cut bait.  Still waiting for one of these to bite again. I caught this one last fall on a jig while bass fishing. That’s all for today will keep you posted.
