Clean energy from a hydroelectric facility is always interesting to me. The dam was dedicated in 1962 by President Kennedy and has been producing clean energy ever since.

My favorite spot to shore fish in the state of South Dakota. I gonfor walleyes, but you never know what might bite on your line.

This is an impressive dam. The sunsets are pretty and the fishing above and below the dam are outstanding
-
Beautiful view of the Missouri River, lots of history about the area including pictures of the town/buildings that once occupied the place the river now runs. Great stop on your way through.

Lovely drive to the dam, easy to get find. Impressive structure. Nothing to dislike. Very similar to every other dam on the Missouri, built by the Corp of Engineers.

While staying in Pierre we saw all the big boats parked by our hotel we decided we should have a look at the Oahe Dam. They were having a big fishing contest. The locals say this area is the best fishing in the area year round, especially walleye. The Oahe Dam is one of the world largest earth dams. It is run by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. We had visited a large earth dam in Montana, at Fort Peck that was very interesting. This one is not as big but still is large. There is a nice visitor center on the east end of the dam. Not far from the visitor center is the Oahe Chapel that has great views of the lake. There are places to camp & many areas for boaters. It is a very popular place for tourists. They offer a tour of the power plant. We drove below & on the high road. The dam created Lake Oahe, the 4th largest reservoir in the U.S. and goes 231 miles up to Bismarck ND. It is home to threatened and endangered species of wildlife. Watefowl migrate through this area also. It connects the two capitol cities, North and South Dakota. You could spend a lot of time here fishing, wildlife watching & camping.

We only visited the information center here, but in doing so we learned about South Dakotan friendliness. The volunteer on duty told us about the dam and lake and even took pictures of us with our cameras. Our visit was a great introduction to the hospitality of South Dakotans. We just didn't have enough time to fully experience the dam.

The walleyes were numerous. Great size on the catfish. The water was very clear. TONS of boats on the 4th of July.

I don't own a boat so I don't really know what this looks like from that side of things. Take the tour...see the technology. It's amazing what man can do! There are some picnic spots and camp areas in the vacinity. Pack a basket and spend the day....you'll be relaxed from all the fresh air!
