Promising Fishing at Lake of the Ozarks with Ideal Fall Conditions

  • Summary

  • As of November 16, 2024, the fishing scene at Lake of the Ozarks is looking promising, especially with the crisp fall conditions.

    ### Weather and Time
    Today, the sunrise is at 6:51 AM, and the sunset will be at 4:58 PM. The weather is expected to be cool and clear, making it an ideal day for fishing.

    ### Fish Activity
    Fish activity has been robust, particularly during the major bite times. According to the fishing times chart, the major bite times today are from 7:23 AM to 9:23 AM and 7:37 PM to 9:37 PM, with minor bite times from 1:14 AM to 3:14 AM and 1:25 PM to 3:25 PM.

    ### Types and Amounts of Fish
    Yesterday saw a good catch of bass and crappie. Ken and Michelle Miller reported a successful crappie fishing trip, catching several crappies in the deeper waters. Bass fishing has also been productive, with many anglers reporting catches of both largemouth and smallmouth bass.

    ### Best Lures and Bait
    For bass, using jigs and crankbaits has been effective, especially in the clearer waters around the points and coves. Soft plastics like curly tail grubs and plastic worms are also working well. For crappie, small jigs tipped with minnows or small plastic lures have been the go-to choice.

    ### Hot Spots
    Some of the best spots to try your luck include Moonlight Bay, Bogue Bay, and Still Water Bay. These areas, with their shallow waters and clear conditions, are ideal for land-based fishing, especially during twilight times. Additionally, points like Duck Head Point and Perkins Point, as well as coves such as Jennings Branch Cove and McCoy Branch Cove, have been productive.

    Overall, with the favorable weather and fish activity, today should be a great day to get out on the water at Lake of the Ozarks.
