KDWP put the nets out today at Hillsdale. They definitely think it's get some time.
Further away in MO: Was jerking all day for spooners west of the Osceola bridge. White bass were all up in the river. Really stacked on the hard breaks.

Talked to the creel counting guy at HD today. Said they checked the nets today. Got like 6 females and they didn't have many eggs in um. He said guys were really disappointed. Also said he checked and recorded on Hillsdale all weekend and fishing at Hillsdale based on his creel survey the fishing the last 3 days has been slow. Wind was changing from SW to NW while we were speaking
always did better before nets and after nets ??
Pressure is real light. One guy on foot and one boat at sunset last night.
I don't usually fish the walleye spawn. Prefer after they come back to the flats. Got mushrooms, spooners, white bass and turkeys to do. Much more action there for me then the walleye spawn. And I don't have confidence in getting close to a limit. Rather wait and put serious weight in the boat later. Only reason for posting is to maybe help someone else out. 3%.

Managed a couple decent ones. Nothing like starting the season with big ones.
Those some good paddle fish. Where'd you catch those. My cousin lives down by Burlington, thought about heading down there some time to give it a try just haven't ever done it, looks like a blast though.
This is the weekend if your wanting to snag. They have been stacked up waiting on high water and are all moving upriver. 150 spoon bill turned in at Miami the last several days
Those fish came from around Osceola on the MO side.
Sorry I was talking about Oklahoma. I have a friend snagging down there this weekend and there getting into a lot of fish on the Neosho river at Miami OK
Thanks for the clarification. Thought I missed a law. Had a interesting discussion at the HD KDWP office today. Gary wasn't in. Talked to the girl. She told me she's never sold a spoonbill tag there before. She also said yesterday someone checked in the first Otter she's seen taken around here.
Looked at the dam in Osawatama today. No one fishing. Lot of current. Gonna give it a try in the morning. It's a maybe.
