Links for canoeing and fishing

Here is another addition. A couple of links with good information on canoeing and fishing in Missouri. The River Water Level provides real time data on stream flow throughout the state. Great information as many rivers become difficult to float during the dry summer months, or extremely dangerous during flash floods. My friend Josh and I once attempted canoeing Swan Creek, near Forsyth, MO, while it was at flood stage. I would not recomend this, and after several long portages and a cell phone call to my brother at the first low water bridge we left the river with a much greater appreciation for the force of water.

One of the rivers with the most consistent flow, yet one of the least travelled rivers, is the Eleven Point. This river has a constant flow from Greer Spring, one of the largest springs in the country, and has excellent trout fishing. I've attached a link to the only outfitter within walking distance to the Eleven Point. It is one of the original National Wild and Scenic Rivers designated in 1968.

The plan is to add some more links on Ozark rivers soon. Unfortunately, a take-home exam in Federal Income Tax is consuming most of my time.
