Moberly (Beuth Park Lake) is a public lake in Randolph County, Missouri, managed by Missouri Department of Conservation (managed public waterbody). It is public water managed for fishing by the Missouri Department of Conservation. Public access confirmed via MDC.
A Missouri winter trout lake — an urban or community lake stocked with rainbow trout each November, catch-and-keep from the first Saturday in February (catch-and-release November to then). Also holds largemouth bass, bluegill, crappie and channel catfish the rest of the year. A trout permit is required to keep trout.
Moberly (Beuth Park Lake) covers about 2 acres in the Northeast region. Anglers here mostly fish for rainbow trout, largemouth bass, bluegill, channel catfish; black crappie are also on record. The nearest other mapped waters on PiscaMaps are Sweet Spring Creek and Rothwell Lake.

Night fishing: No statewide night-fishing closure in Missouri. The trout parks are day-only (30 minutes before sunrise to 30 minutes after sunset in season); many MDC-area lakes gate at night or post hours, and some conservation areas are day-use only. Trotlines, throwlines, limb lines, bank lines and jug lines are legal on most waters (not trout water, not the trout parks) with the gear tagged, and gigging and snagging have their own seasons.
Boats: Lake of the Ozarks, Table Rock, Bull Shoals, Truman, Stockton, Pomme de Terre, Smithville, Mark Twain, the Missouri and Mississippi have no horsepower limit; idle / no-wake zones are marked near ramps, marinas, dams and coves. Most MDC-area and community lakes are electric-motor-only or have a small gas-hp cap (shown at the ramp), and the Ozark float streams are canoe, kayak and jon-boat water. Missouri requires a boater-education card for operators born after 1 Jan 1984.
Bank & bivvy camping: Camp at Missouri state parks (which sit on the best lakes and rivers — Lake of the Ozarks, Table Rock, Stockton, Pomme de Terre, Wappapello, and Bennett Spring, Montauk, Roaring River, Meramec, Sam A. Baker on the trout and float streams), Corps campgrounds on Truman, Stockton, Mark Twain, Smithville, Bull Shoals and Wappapello, the Mark Twain National Forest (dispersed camping across most of it), and the gravel bars of the Ozark National Scenic Riverways (Current and Jacks Fork).
Anyone 16-64 needs a Missouri Department of Conservation fishing permit — the resident annual is about $13, the non-resident annual about $52, and 1-day and 3-day permits are sold (a 1-day permit needs no trout permit to fish trout parks that day). A trout permit (about $10 resident / $12 non-resident) is required to fish for or possess trout anywhere in the state EXCEPT with a daily 1-day fishing permit; the trout parks also charge a separate daily trout tag. Missouri residents 65 and older, and anyone 15 or under, do not need a permit (the trout permit and daily tag still apply). A single permit covers the Corps and MDC reservoirs. Buy from MDC at mdc.mo.gov. A Missouri fishing permit covers this water; a trout permit is also required to fish for or keep trout (a 1-day permit alone is enough for that day). MDC-area lakes may have electric-motor or hours rules.
