FISHING ACTIVITY

WAPPAPELLO -- Fishing is the number one outdoor activity for people visitng Wappapello Lake.

Anglers are reminded that the pond constructed at the Lost creek Trail area will not be open to fishing until Jan. 1, 1992.

The three-acre pond was stocked with bass, bluegill and catfish in 1989, and is currently closed to fishing to allow the stocked fish to reach adequate size.

"Next year the pond will provide visitors with a secluded site to fish from the bank, and enjoy the natural beauty of the the Lost Creek area," said Michael McClendon, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.
