Rocky Fork Lakes Conservation Area

Columbia, Missouri

Welcome to Rocky Fork Lakes Conservation Area in Columbia, Missouri. Before the State of Missouri purchased this land in 1979 it belonged to the Peabody Coal Company which operated it as a mine from 1963 until 1972. Much of the land has since returned to a state of nature.

Fishing and Hunting: Many anglers come to Rocky Fork Lakes Conservation Area to catch bass, catfish, and crappie and sunfish. Many hunters come for deer, dove, quail, rabbit, squirrel, and wild turkey. Come out and try your luck.
