1. You're in the Market for a New Boat. 


When you attend a boat show, you have the unique opportunity to climb aboard and inspect all of the boats. You'll have access to all the latest and greatest in cruisers, runabouts, performance boats, pontoons, ski boats, personal watercraft, docks, lifts and boating accessories all at once. You'll be able to do a side-by-side comparison of your favorite options and even talk to industry experts on the pros and cons of the boats you're considering for your purchase. There's nothing like a boat show to shop for a new boat!

2. It's Something to Do with the Family. 


Depending on the area you live in, sometimes it's hard to find fun things to do with the family during the winter months. While it may be too cold for those outdoor activities you love like boating, attending events like boat shows offer the perfect alternative. The kids will love running around looking at all the big, beautiful watercraft. In addition to the boat related exhibitors you can expect to talk with other vendors that may be able to assist you in other aspects of lake living.

3. Just to Learn About Boats. 


Even if you're not in the market for a new boat right now, maybe you will be in the future. A boat show is a great place to learn all about boating, boats, boating accessories and more! With a better understanding of the boating industry, you can decide if owning a boat is something you might want to consider - or maybe you just like looking at all the cool boats and will leave the buying to your friends!

Winter Fishing at Lake of the Ozarks

Just because it's winter, doesn't mean you can't have fun at the Lake of the Ozarks. Many anglers don't realize that these cooler months can offer some of the best jig fishing of the year! Summerset Boat Lifts wants you to make the most of fishing during the winter months - so let's take a look at what makes the Lake of the Ozarks a great place for winter fishing and where the best spots are for winter fishing!

Winter Lake Conditions


There are 3 specific conditions that make the Lake of the Ozarks a great place to fish in the wintertime:
  1. Whether on the main lake or in creeks, bass fish prefer to relate to the channels for security and travel paths. They simply hold on at the ends of channels throughout the winter. 
  2. When the water temperatures are around 39-42 degrees and stays the same throughout the lake's depths. This is because the water is the densest at these temperatures. As a result, anglers are able to find bass anywhere from 5-2- feet deep. 
  3. On sunny days, the sun will warm some of the dark-colored banks, attracting the bass in order to warm themselves. Crawfish also move to the same banks, making the banks even more desirable for the bass to grab an easy meal. 

Best Spots for Winter Fishing


When winter fishing at the Lake of the Ozarks, start in the more shallow areas of the lake, working your way to the deeper areas. Head to the back of creeks or coves first - you're likely to have the best luck in those areas, especially on sunny days. Some other areas of the lake to tackle first include: 
  • Isolated Stumps
  • Large Rocks
  • Brush 
  • Laydowns (trees or stumps laying on the lake floor) 

If you love fishing and have a boat here at the Lake of the Ozarks, we can help you keep it in the water all year long, allowing you to fish here in the winter months too! Our Lake of the Ozarks boat lift accessories such as de-icers and remote controls for your lift are perfect for keeping your boat, lift and dock in proper working condition throughout the year.
