Creel results

Is there a place that the creel results are posted for missouri lakes and resevores? Interested in Truman and Lake of the Ozarks. Thanks

Creel surveys are becoming fewer and far between. Greg Stoner can give you latest on LOZ, he's in our Camdenton Office, 573-346-2210 x235. Mike Bayless is the biologist for Truman, 660-885-8179 x253. I'm not sure when the last creels were completed, but they can give you the info. Creels are pretty expensive what with the labor, equipment and pretty significant computer and staff time needed to analyze. Creels are a ton of work and even when completed the results can be a little suspect due to surveying just a small area and then trying to expand those results to the whole lake. I still love to have creel data when possible, but in these lean times the expense is just too great.
