About this water
Bucksaw Recreation Area on Harry S Truman Reservoir offers excellent access to one of Missouri's largest lakes, covering over 55,000 acres. The area is well known for white bass runs in spring, along with consistent largemouth bass, crappie, and walleye fishing throughout the year. The marina and boat ramps provide convenient access for both bank and boat anglers.
