    Lake of the Ozarks Fishing Report March 2025 - Bass, Crappie, and Catfish Heating Up as Spring Approaches

    Hey there, fellow anglers! Artificial Lure here with your Lake of the Ozarks fishing report for March 24, 2025. Let me tell ya, the fishing's been heating up as we transition into spring. Weather-wise, we're looking at partly cloudy skies with highs around 65°F and lows in the mid-40s. Winds are light out of the southwest at 5-10 mph. Sunrise is at 7:15 AM and sunset at 7:22 PM, giving us plenty of daylight to wet a line[1]. Water temps are climbing into the low 50s, and that's got the fish moving. Bass activity has really picked up this past week. Lots of pre-spawn largemouth and spots are moving up to secondary points and creek channels. I've been hearing reports of some nice 3-5 pounders being caught, with a few pushing 6 pounds[1]. For baits, jerkbaits like the Smithwick Rogue or Megabass Vision 110 have been absolute killers. Work 'em slow with long pauses. Alabama rigs are also producing, especially for bigger fish. Don't forget about a jig - drag it slow along those rocky banks[1][7]. Crappie fishing has been on fire too. They're stacked up on brush piles in 15-20 feet of water. Minnows under a slip bobber or small jigs tipped with Crappie Nibbles are the ticket. I've seen stringers with 30-40 fish, mostly in the 10-12 inch range[1]. For catfish, cut shad or nightcrawlers fished on the bottom in 25-35 feet of water are your best bet. Blues and channels in the 5-10 pound class have been common[1]. As for hot spots, I'd focus on the Grand Glaize arm or up near the 50 mile marker. The mouths of major creeks like Gravois, Indian, and Linn Creek have also been producing[1][4]. One last tip - keep an eye out for dying shad. We've had a bit of a shad kill lately, which has really fired up the predator fish. Match the hatch with silver or white colored lures[1]. That's all for now, folks. Remember to practice catch and release on those big girls so we can keep this fishery thriving. Tight lines and see ya on the water!

    Fishing Report for Lake of the Ozarks - Bass, Crappie, and Catfish Bites Heating Up as Spring Arrives

    Hey there, fellow anglers! This is Artificial Lure comin' at ya with the latest fishing report for Lake of the Ozarks on this fine Wednesday, March 19, 2025. First off, let's talk weather. We're lookin' at a partly cloudy day with highs around 65°F and lows dipping to 48°F overnight. Winds are light and variable, making for some nice conditions out on the water. Sunrise was at 7:12 AM, and we'll see the sun set at 7:21 PM, giving us plenty of daylight to reel in some beauties. Now, onto the fishin'! Folks, the bite is really heatin' up as we move into spring. We've been seeing a lot of action lately, especially with bass and crappie. The largemouth and spotted bass have been moving shallow, getting ready for the spawn. Anglers have been having good luck with jerkbaits, Alabama rigs, and soft plastics like worms and creature baits. Speaking of jerkbaits, I've been hearing great things about the 6th Sense Provoke 97 DD. It's been a real killer for those suspended bass. For you crappie enthusiasts, the bite's been on fire! Folks have been limiting out using small jigs and minnows around brush piles and docks. As for catfish, they're still hanging deep, but they're starting to get more active. Cut shad and nightcrawlers have been producing some nice blues and channels. If you're looking for some hot spots, I'd recommend checking out the Grand Glaize Arm. The points and brush piles there have been holding some good-sized bass. For crappie, the Niangua Arm has been producing limits, especially in the upper reaches where the water's a tad warmer. Remember, with the water temps slowly rising, those fish are gonna be more active, so don't be afraid to pick up the pace of your retrieve a bit. That's all for now, folks. This is Artificial Lure signing off. Tight lines and good fishin' to ya!

    Lake of the Ozarks Fishing Report: Bass, Crappie, and Catfish Heating Up for Spring

    Hey there, fellow anglers! Artificial Lure here with your Lake of the Ozarks fishing report for March 16, 2025. Sunrise today was at 6:21 AM, and we're looking at a high of 68°F with partly cloudy skies. The water temp is sitting around 54°F, which means the fish are starting to get more active. Sunset's gonna be at 7:17 PM, so we've got plenty of daylight to work with. Now, let's talk fish. The bass have been moving shallow, folks. We're seeing a lot of largemouth in the 2-5 pound range, with a few bigger ones mixed in. Crappie fishing has been on fire lately, with limits being caught regularly. Catfish are still hanging deep, but they're biting well if you can find 'em. For you bass anglers, jerkbaits are still the ticket. That Megabass Vision 110 in pro blue has been absolutely killin' it. If you're fishing deeper, don't forget about that ol' reliable Alabama rig. For crappie, small jigs in white or chartreuse are working great, especially around brush piles. If you're after catfish, cut shad or nightcrawlers on a slip sinker rig is the way to go. Fish the deeper channels and you'll be in business. As for hot spots, I'd recommend checking out the Grand Glaize Arm. Those points and brush piles have been holding some nice fish. Another area that's been producing is the Gravois Arm, especially for those trophy blue cats. Remember, with the water warming up, these fish are starting to move. Don't be afraid to cover some water and try different depths until you find 'em. That's all I've got for ya today, folks. Get out there and wet a line! This is Artificial Lure, signing off and wishing you tight lines and big catches.

    Lake of the Ozarks March Fishing Report: Bass, Crappie, and Catfish Bites Heating Up

    Hey there, fellow anglers! Artificial Lure here with your Lake of the Ozarks fishing report for March 15, 2025. We've got a beautiful spring day ahead of us, with partly cloudy skies and temperatures reaching the mid-60s. Sunrise was at 6:25 AM, and we'll see the sun dip below the horizon at 7:18 PM, giving us plenty of daylight to reel in some big ones. Water temperatures are steadily climbing, now sitting in the low to mid-50s across most of the lake. This warming trend has really kicked the fish activity into high gear, especially for bass and crappie. The recent Toyota Series tournament showed some tough conditions, but things have improved dramatically since then[1][4]. Bass fishing has been heating up, with largemouth and spotted bass moving into shallower water. Anglers are having success with jerkbaits, Alabama rigs, and finesse jigs around points and rocky banks[2]. The Megabass Vision 110 and Smithwick Rogue have been particularly effective in shad patterns[7]. Crappie fishing has been on fire lately, with many folks reporting limits of slabs[1]. They're staging near brush piles in 15-25 feet of water. Minnows and small jigs in white or chartreuse have been the ticket[2]. Catfish action has been steady, with some nice blues and flatheads being caught on cut shad and nightcrawlers. Try fishing deeper holes near channel swings for the best results[1][2]. For you paddlefish enthusiasts, the spring season is in full swing. Remember to use heavy gear with 80-100lb braided line and large treble hooks for snagging these prehistoric giants[18]. As for hot spots, I'd recommend checking out the Grand Glaize Arm near the 19-mile marker for bass. The points and brush piles in that area have been holding some nice fish. For crappie, the Gravois Arm has been producing well, especially around the 4-mile marker[1][2]. Don't forget to swing by one of our local bait shops to stock up on minnows and nightcrawlers. They've got the inside scoop on what's biting and where. That's all for now, folks. Get out there, stay safe, and tight lines!
