Lake of the Ozarks Tops Missouri for Fishing Odds
The Lake of the Ozarks, formed by Bagnell Dam in 1941, yields the highest fishing average in Missouri at about 1.1 fish per hour. It hosts paddlefish and sturgeon, crappie and walleye, sauger, channel and blue catfish, striped bass, and other species. The area relies on hatcheries and seasonal stocking to sustain a thriving sport fishery.
