The Latest News 6-10-13
 The lake is currently at 844.71',  839' is normal pool level.  They are currently letting out 1620 CFS.  Lake is going down around 3" per day.  Walleye have started to hit, along with some crappie, still slow on both species but picking up.  While trolling for walleye today caught a 14.5" crappie, filleted out real nice, so did the walleye.  Supposed to be hot this week with no rain forecast except for some scattered showers on Thursday, things may get back to normal for a while, except for the heat....
 

 

I want your trip to Pomme de Terre to be very enjoyable, why? because I want your return business.  I offer dockside service to the resort where you are staying or I can meet you at a Marina close to where you will be staying.  We will start the day by casting and then by trolling in the afternoon.  If you wish to troll all day, or if you would rather cast, both are fine with me.  We will do the type of fishing that suits you best.  Muskies, like all fish, are unpredictable and if a poor day happens because of the weather or just a bad fishing day we will make arrangements for another trip at a reduced fee.  Wanna take the wife and kids for a pontoon boat ride around the lake?  I also provide tours of the lake, call for pricing on this. 

Today is

It will be catch & release for Muskies unless by chance we get a state record in the boat and the chances for that seem better all the time with the amount of Muskies being caught on Pomme.   I can put you in touch with a couple of taxidermists that will make replicas of your catch while you leave it alive to be caught again, one of the taxidermist's will give a 10% discount when I call him for you.  While it is Muskies Inc.'s policy to encourage the careful release of healthy Muskies that are not personal trophies to the angler, it is NOT my policy to intimidate or pressure any angler or group of anglers into releasing Muskies.

For your day on the water you will need the following equipment:  current Missouri fishing license, rain gear (if necessary), beverages (I supply free bottled water) (each boat has a cooler), lunch if you wish to eat or we can stop and get something at a marina (one marina offers call in service for lunches)( time spent for lunch does not count against fishing time), snacks if you wish, make sure you have the appropriate clothing for the time of the year or current weather conditions.  You can bring your own fishing equipment, don't have muskie tackle--I do--for you to use, one rule though - lose a lure - you have to replace it, sorry, but those things are very expensive, life jacket, but make sure that you limit the amount of tackle due to space limitations in boats.  Don’t forget your camera to take that picture of your muskie.  I provide a check list on this website, print it out and use it.  If you think of something that should be added let me know I am always trying to improve the service to you and everyone else.  No alcohol, while in the boat, please.

THE ANCHOR WIZARD
Just got one of these for the pontoon boat so we can park out on a windy point and not worry about losing a good spot because of the wind.  This is a fantastic anchoring system, you have to see it to really appreciate it.

  1. A 21' Charger Bass Boat, very comfortable to fish out of, a very smooth ride on the water. The boat is powered by a 300 HP Johnson engine and has a 74 Lb of thrust Minn Kota trolling motor.  Getting anywhere on the lake in a short amount of time is no problem.  Also in the boat is a Frabil Big Kahuna net to land your muskie.     The Perfect Gift For A Fisherman or Fisherlady
Husband – Wife Trips Welcome 


Perfect trip for that busy executive that needs a break.
     
 

2. A 24' Pontoon boat if you would just like to troll.  Casting is also available from the pontoon depending on the number in the party. On the pontoon there is ample room to get up and move about.  There is also some shelter from the sun and the rain if the need is there.

In the spring of 2005 Lake Pomme de Terre was host to the PMTT (Professional Muskie Tournament Trail) and all the contestants stated that a 36" muskie from Pomme was the same as a 38-39" muskie from up north.  Our Muskies down here are very well fed and it is fun to catch them.  Our Muskies have a shorter life span but the growth rate is a lot faster due to the warmer water.
