Osage Cove
  • Type of Facility: Fish Attractor
  • Location of Facility: N039 30.019’ W098 19.235’
  • Click for more information

    This is probably the best crappie hotspot in the spring when the fish are spawning, and it receives heavy fishing pressure throughout the year for black bass, channel catfish, and crappie. At conservation pool, this attractor is around 18 feet deep and is easily accessible from shore. We will upgrade this attractor once the reservoir fills. It consists of approximately 120 cedar trees.

    We added another 40 cedar trees to this cove in January 2011 by placing the trees on the ice with cinder blocks wired to them. As the ice thawed, the trees dropped to the bottom and can be located just east of the small rock jetty and boat dock. This should be an excellent prespawn location for crappie.
    We greatly enhanced this pile in March 2014 with the addition of 50 large cedar trees.  Special thanks to all of the volunteers who contributed to this effort.
Finger Point
  • Type of Facility: Fish Attractor

    One of four deep water brush piles we maintain (around 32 feet when the reservoir is full), this attractor is located off the Campground 3 point on a steep drop near shore. The area is marked with a fish attractor buoy and is fairly easy to locate. Fall and winter crappie congregate around this brushpile, along with other species, including white bass, walleye, and channel catfish. A long cast from shore can reach this fish attractor.

    We added another 100 cedar trees to this brush pile in March 2013 which brings the total number of trees placed on this fish attractor to nearly 400.
    We added another 46 pine trees in April 2011 to this brush pile with the assistance of several local volunteers.
    We recently upgraded this brush pile in May 2009 with the addition of over 200 cedar trees.
    We really beefed this brush pile up in fall 2006 with the addition of over 100 medium and large spruce pines from a local Christmas tree farm. Thanks to volunteer efforts of the Waconda Lake Association and local anglers for all of their assistance!

    A vehicle permit is required upon entering any Kansas State Park. It is preferable that permits are purchased at the entrance booth or at the office. However, if both are closed there are two self-pay stations at Crawford State Park where vehicle permits and camping permits can be purchased. One is located just inside the entrance to the park on the right (south) side. The second one is across from the camp host site in Rocky Cove Campground. Self-pay instructions are available at the stations. If you have any questions about how to fill out the needed information or need to know what you owe, ask a camp host or park ranger. Park maps and park rules as well as other information are available at the self-pay stations.
