LOZ - Increasing the Odds

For those of us that don't get much time on the water, l thought it would be good to try and join forces, if necessary, to increase our chances of a good catch and meet some new members. I'll be headed down to LOZ this weekend (Friday afternoon) and will be fishing in the Gravois arm. I usually do pretty good this time of year, but any given day things can change, and the fish seem to be off pattern a bit this year. For those who don't know me, I grew up on/near LOZ and currently live in St. Louis. Will be staying at the family lake house in Soap Creek.

I'd guess the bite will be good in the morning and late evening once the temps get up high this weekend. I'll leave my phone number for anyone out this weekend to call or text. Anyone interested can also PM me their number, but I can't guarantee how often I'll be able the check the CDC site once I hit the lake.

I see that the Truman camp is going on now, but I just can't swing it this year - darn it!

I may also have an open seat as it looks like my buddy may not be able to go now...

Happy fishing :fish

I plan on being there all day Sunday around that area. Putting in at Coffman Beach. If you are around on Sunday let me know and I'll pm you my number.

Been a while polvo. Wish you were making Truman camp. Hopefully you guys can get on some fish down there.

I will be around on Sunday. Hit me with a text before then with your screen name (so I know who it is) and I'll give you a fishing report before you get there.

I'll be there this weekend as well. I'll text you Saturday AM.

I know, brother - I don't get to go that often anymore, so I don't visit the site that much because it's like salt in the wound seeing you all with those nice fish.:banghead

BTW - that's a hog that you have in your avatar!

Good luck at camp! You never know, if LOZ is a no joe, I may pack it up and head your way!

Sounds good, man. Hopefully I'll something to report by tomorrow night.

Headed down this afternoon. Staying at a place in twin island cove. May be fishing up around gravois on Saturday morning. Fishing out of a black 92 charger with red stripes and 150 merc. Hope to hear the fishing report.

Text me with you screen name - I'll add everyone to a text chain so we can all quickly communicate while on the water.

fishing yesterday late afternoon was fairly poor, but the late night fishing was very good. They moved up on the banks during the night. Fishing during the day today has again been pretty poor, but I expect the night fishing to be very good again. Although, I have heard from others on here that spider rigging is working. I guess the high barometric pressure has likely push them further off the banks and they will likely be back at night after the Sun Goes Down and the pressure drops

That's what I found also. Been getting blasted by the harbor hoppers. Sitting at the house waiting for my buddy to get down here now. Girlfriend was catching em off the dock last night. She's never caught a fish before and was grousing all week about how this trip wasn't going to be fun for her. I had to drag her in the house at 10:30 last night cuz she "just wanna catch one more after this one". It was great. Hopefully they start back up here on a while. Staying over here in twin island cove at the eagles nest. Boat almost got sunk parked in the dock a couple hours ago when a couple big boats blasted by at full throttle.
