Description

There's a lack of public access in this area, but lots of private docks and ramps dot the edges of this stretch. It is popular with inboard and outboard jet boaters.

Regulations

There is no horsepower limit or engine-type restriction on the Meramec. Some rules for Sharing the Water will enable paddlers and boaters to interact safely, minimizing opportunities for conflict.

Highlights & Hazards

Roaring Spring, set on a pool with excellent fishing.

Gauge
