    I guess No One fishes Truman anymore

    I posted previously about How the bass fishing is at Truman. No one post anything. Wanting to give It a shot.

    Any info reports would be helpful.

    Enjoy Your Coffee.

    Thank in Advance.

    I'll be fishing it twice in October. It's a longer drive than I would like for just a day trip

    Was on the water 2 weeks ago. Nice topwater bite, usually is during the summer. Water was about as clear as it gets for Truman, 2'+ visibility in the Osage Bluff area. We had 3"+ rain last nite, so water is probably rising again (still 9ft high). Saw lots of shad, and fingerling bass shadowing my Pop-R. Caught some small bass, missed a bigger blow-up on a spook.

    Sorry, but that makes no sense. If nobody went, there wouldn't be too many people would there?
