405z06 Posted May 16, 2012 Posted May 16, 2012 I live in St Louis and a few years ago got turned on to smallmouth fishing on the Ozark Streams. There are countless creeks to wade and many, many rivers that can accomodate boats of varying sizes and canoes. My personal best smallmouth came out of the Big River less than 10 miles form my house in Fenton. The Meramec from between Steelville and Leasburg is gorgeous and has good smallmouth fishing. Outfitters that will put you on the water in that area include Ozark Outdoors, Blue Springs Ranch, Garrison's, and Indian Springs Resort. If you can get a day off in the middle of the week, I highly reccomend this stretch. There are also 2 creeks that flow into the Meramec that offer canoe rental: the Huzzah and the Courtois. The outfitters are Huzzah Valley Resort and Bass' River Resort. A little further away are the Big Piney, the Gasconade, Jack's Fork, The Current, Eleven Point., etc. All offer outstanding smallmouth fishing.
