Pony Express Lake (Northwest Region)Information: (816) 675-2205 or (816) 271-3100 This 240-acre lake on the Pony Express Lake Conservation Area supports a variety of fish, but most anglers target catfish. Channel and blue catfish are stocked most years. Recent surveys show channel catfish from 15-22" in length are common. Anglers often enjoy good catch rates for catfish in the main body of the lake, or near inlets during periods of runoff, using cut bait and other prepared baits. Larger blue catfish, up to 30 pounds or more, may be caught with live bait suspended over deeper channels. Crappie are abundant but tend to be smaller (6-8"). Anglers are encouraged to keep all small crappie caught up to their daily limit of 30. Largemouth bass are not abundant but good catch rates for 11-17" fish may be found near submerged trees and brush piles. Anglers may find great fun by targeting common carp which are abundant at sizes from 10-20 pounds. Recently constructed angling amenities at the lake include a new fish-cleaning station located on the end of a newly re-surfaced and accessible fishing pier. Prospects courtesy of MDC
