"A bad day of fishing, is always better then a good day at work"
I prefer Montauk. I personally thing the fishing is better.
I have fished them all in MO and this is my personal favorite.
Bennett Springs is a close second.
Each has their own niche but I would have to say Montauk as I've been going there since I was a teenager and we had a lot of great trips. Roaring river if the kids want to get out for the weekend or Maramec Springs for a quick day trip.
Now I will say if you don't want to deal with crowds Rock Bridge is hard to beat. Pricey but also very very nice.
I like roaring river and reason being is it's always good fishing but I can take the boat with me and finish up there and head right over to The Rock! I don't know why you asked for parks but if you're willing to venture out and really want to catch some big trout you should try the Eleven Point! Fantastic trout fishing there but also can float down stream a bit and get in to some great smallmouth as well

Only been to Roaring River and we've been going since early 70's. Always a good time!
I asked this question out of pure curiosity. I usually go to Bennett Spring, but really want to try Roaring River because the pictures look like it’s a pretty place. My usually fishing partner would vote Montauk with many of you.
