A sprawling 55,600-acre reservoir, Truman Lake offers excellent fishing for bass, crappies, white bass, stripers and other species virtually year-round. It is considered by many to be the best catfish lake in the state. Marinas and boat launch areas are available to the public. For those who enjoy fishing from the bank, there are over 950 miles of shoreline. Those who prefer to fish from a canoe, kayak, or another fishing boat, there is plenty of easy access. Benton County is a fisherman’s paradise! There are 55,600 acres of Truman Lake fishing and 54,000 acres of Lake of the Ozarks fishing in Benton County! Truman and Lake of the Ozarks are home to trophy largemouth bass, crappie, bluegill, and catfish just waiting for your challenge!

And if a new challenge is what you are looking for, consider spoonbill fishing. For many years, Warsaw has maintained the title of “Spoonbill Capital of the World.”

Don’t take our word for it. Check out the MDC fishing report for Truman Lake here or Lake Ozark here!

Here you can fish the way you want, whether you’re looking to fish the banks of the Dam or the Lake of the Ozarks, bring your own fishing boat or rent a boat and or kayak, Benton County really does have it all!

Here is an interactive map courtesy of Destination Crappie with all of the boat launches on Truman.

Walleye: 6lb 13oz caught on a jug line near Osage Bluff Marina.

Catfish

Fish areas near swift current and deep water in large rivers. Heavy gear should be used because blues weighing 20 to 50 pounds are common in these waters.

Paddlefish

Also known as “spoonbills” because of the shape of their snouts, the fish feed on plankton and other microscopic prey and therefore do not take bait from hooks and must be snagged. The best snagging conditions occur when water temperature reaches 50 to 55 degrees and there is an increase in water flow. This prompts them to move upstream to spawn. Snagging season runs March 15 through April 30.
