Lake Information for Mark Twain Lake
Mark Twain Lake is an 18,000-acre man-made lake impounding the Salt River. The lake is created by the Clarence Cannon Dam.
There are two four-lane, concrete boat ramps located in the park. One is located off of Route U one-half mile west of the junction of Highway 107 and Route U. This ramp does not have a lighted parking lot. The second ramp is located off of Highway 107 about two miles north of the same junction. This ramp has a lighted parking lot. Both offer access to Mark Twain Lake and there is no charge for using these ramps.
Mark Twain Lake offers excellent fishing for crappie, catfish, largemouth bass, bluegill, carp, walleye and perch. The lake has many quiet coves where anglers can spend peaceful days fishing and relaxing. Fishermen can take advantage of opportunities on Mark Twain Lake 24 hours a day, year-round (when lake conditions permit).
