HAMBURG, Iowa – The Iowa D-N-R wants to remind everyone that the Missouri River remains closed to boat traffic due to ongoing flooding even though outflow from the federal dams upriver is gradually being reduced. The boating restriction will remain in place until the river is back in its banks and conditions allow for boaters to return to the river.
All fishing regulations remain in place for the Missouri River including its floodwaters. On August 9, the Iowa DNR announced it would relax most fishing rules on isolated waters created when the Missouri River returned to its banks. Those isolated pockets of water should be appearing in late September.
