Southeast Missouri –Wappappello

Holliday Landing (573 224 3430) The smallmouth run in the river is in full swing. Crawdad crank baits or jigs produce good catches as they are retrieved up against the rock walls in the outside bends of the river.  Most other fishing is for crappie out on the old channel at the twelve-foot depth. There will still be a few white bass fishermen but they will be concentrating their efforts in the Blue Springs area where the whites spend the winter. There will also be some walleye coming from this same area as this fishery is developing. Be sure to check the regulations for this species.
