Big Hill & Bone Creek Tips?

Featured Replies

Well since my last post on largest bass caught on public waters I'm heading to Big Hill and Bone creek on Thursday. Taking advice of hitting some SE Kansas lakes from peeps on the forum. I'll probably head that way Wed after work with my 2 boys. So any advice on these lakes would be greatly appreciated. Thinking I'll fish big hill Thursday and Bone creek Friday. Do any of these 2 lakes have electric hookups going to need some power to charge trolling motors?At worst I'll take my generator.

Best advice I can give you is to skip Big Hill and go straight to Bone Creek for 2 days. There's big fish in Big Hill, but they're hard to find. If you really want to fish 2 different lakes then fish Bone Creek and Lake Ft. Scott. They're only a few miles apart and both have big fish. Ft. Scott is a little easier to fish, a little smaller, and it has a good population of spotted bass. Cedar Creek Lake on the northwest side of Ft. Scott has some big fish too but it's a ton of standing timber, even more than Bone, which is going to be a pain unless your kids are really good at casting. 

 

I'm not sure about the electrical but there's cheap hotels you could stay at in Ft. Scott and charge your batteries.

Thanks for the info bluebaasser86. Guess I'm going straight to bone creek then. Both kids are very good casters and the 16 year old can put the boat in the water decently now. 500 acres I should be able to cover all the shorelines. What's the most productive side of the lake?
