So if you don’t mind, what is the story on Fellows Lake in Springfield, Missouri? Is there a decent fishing at Fellows Lake?
I went to college in Springfield back in the 1970s and Fellows Lake was where you would take your girlfriend on a date. I never knew that it was actually a decent fishing lake. My question is sincere. What is the story on fishing at Fellows Lake? I live in Branson so the information would be helpful. Thank you! BeaverTooth
Fellows is Springfields water supply, very heavily fished, just pounded.
It’s only about 15 miles from home, gotta slip there so I fish it.
I’m older now, don’t want to trailer to where you are.
Table Rock, Taneycomo and Bull Shoals, would be my choices if I lived there.

Yeah, thanks so much for the answer. I assumed with a town as large as Springfield, the lake would be quite busy. I believe it also has a small horsepower limit, doesn’t it? That fits me fine since I have a modded johnboat with a mercury 9.9.
Now that I am older, 71, my biggest dread concerning a day of fishing is launching and loading my boat. I bought a brand “new” 12 foot Lowe John boat and trailer and a mercury 9.9. Since everything is new it should give me no problem for quite a while. It’s very small and light, so it is easy to deal with, but still I dread hooking it up and trailering it to the lake, and launching it in places without a boat dock…and then reloading it again especially if it’s windy. It’s funny how the things that bother me now would’ve never bothered me when I was younger. I love to fish because I love being in a boat on the water. How much more of a fisherman than I am a catcher of fish. It’s not a science for me, it’s just a pleasurable past time. Best wishes!
