We have three nice lakes within a 45 mile radius. Today we visited one of those lakes, Thomas Hill Reservoir in north central Missouri. We have had lots of rain lately, so the lake is very muddy (farm land runoff). Air temp 85 with a lake temp of 96. That is the coal power-plant in the background.

Thomas Hill Reservoir Conservation Area

Driving Directions
Main entrance is 5.25 miles west of Macon on Highway 36, then 10 miles south on Route C to College Mound, and 2.4 miles west on Route T.


Highlights
Primarily forest and old fields. Facilities/features: campground, boat ramps, boat docks, picnic areas, a fishing jetty, and 4,950 acres of fishable water. The area also has a waterfowl refuge north of Route T and upland hunting on several thousand acres. A heated water discharge canal offers unique winter fishing opportunities.



About This Area
The Thomas Hill Reservoir Conservation Area property is owned by Associated Electric Cooperative Inc. of Springfield, MO. The reservoir was constructed to provide a source of water to cool the power plant during energy production. The area is managed by the Conservation Department under a multi-year lease. The area consists of the 4,950-acre Thomas Hill Reservoir, surrounded by 4,381 acres of land which is approximately 60% open and 40% forested. The area has 2.2 miles of stream frontage on the Middle Fork of the Little Chariton River. The north end of the reservoir features several wetland units, created and maintained by beavers, that attract a variety of nesting and migrating birds. Management of the area includes farming, timber harvest, and controlled burns to improve wildlife habitat and increase species diversity. The public is restricted from a small portion of the area near the power plant. Thomas Hill Reservoir is managed primarily for largemouth bass, crappie, hybrid striped bass and catfish. The warm water discharge remains ice-free during the winter providing a unique winter fishing opportunity. Bald eagles are present on the reservoir and can usually be seen from Highway T, especially in the winter. The area also has an improved campground with concrete pads, shelters, fire grates, and privies. Three concrete boat ramps are located on the lake.

New to the site and to Jet Boats! My wife and I are new owners of a 2010 Challenger 180 SE 255HP and spend most of our time out on Allatoona here in Georgia. We have seen a Challenger 210 and a few speedsters but nothing else, of course we have only been out on the lake for a few weeks...

Looking forward to seeing others out on the water!

[Kevin Leclair]

Welcome to the site, glad to see another SeaDoo Sport Boat owner on Allatoona - this is where we do most of our boating too! We have have a blue 2008 180 Challenger SE but have our eyes on a new 210 Challenger Wake hopefully.

We spent Sunday on Mark Twain Lake in Missouri.

[Kevin Leclair]

How was that lake Stephen? Clean or weedy?

[STEPHEN X-20]

No weeds. The water was a little muddy from recent rains, but other than that it was perfect.

[Kevin Leclair]

Cool, any pics?
