Pardon the pun… I know the temperature is less than comfortable in the heat of the day right now, but fishing is GREAT. Look at this nice one Ms Lindsey caught on Saturday. It was a great rainbow…  We’re finding all methods are working well…. depending on the time of day. Water is running mostly in the afternoon and off on weekends right now..so plan accordingly.

Come see us soon,

Hey..we’re excited about the latest new and different boat in the Scotty’s stalls. This boat will fish 4-5 adults comfortably, and has a Mercury 50hp to move you up the lake.

Shallow drafting will impress you with the ride… it’s pretty darn smooth

$129 per full day, $89 Per half day rentals, plus fuel and tax.

So far June has been a very good month. We had one boat on Friday that caught 140 (four guys) and had a large group this weekend that told us, this was the best year we’ve had in 15 years of coming here.

All that being said, we are using a little of everything, depending on where and what time of day you are fishing. Early in the am, or late evening, your best bet is Spoons, Jigs or Lures that don’t tend to go very deep.

Later in the day, bottom fishing with Powerbait Gulp, right smack in the middle of the channel, is working well. If water is running you could actually do good off the channel as well.

Olive/Ginger jigs and LIttle Cleos were probably the hottest two lures of the weekend, and the Thomas Colorado spoon was pretty hot this past week as well.

Night crawlers are still a favorite from Fall down to Short Creek… some using minnows ..but not many.

 

Have a great day on the lake

Fishing has been good this week. We’re seeing a water pattern of little generation in the am, increasing in the afternoonl, and off at night.

Jigs have been doing great in the mornings, either olive/ginger, ginger or white. Lures this week have been Trout Magnets, Buoyant Spoons gold red or copper.

Gulp in Pink and Yellow, Orange and Yellow.

The main story is the weather the next 6 days looks great, take advantage of it.

Have a great day on the lake.

We are busy as we can be on the lake this week ! Fishing is GREAT.   Water patterns have been light generation in the am, changing to 3 generators after lunch. Brown Jigs, Trout Magnets and Gold Spoons are a must in your tackle box.

If you’re out this weekend .. have a great time  AND be SAFE.

Let us all take the time to remember that we are ablt to do what we do, because of those that served on our behalf, and those that gave the utmost sacrafice.

The cloudy days of the past week, and the rain for that matter, have done little to slow the bite down on Lake Taneycomo. I wondered Sunday morning just what would work in the muddy water from a night of rain. I put on a 1/64th oz Trout Magnet (chertreuse color).. and soon after got my answer.

Fishing has been a challenge with the weather the past few days… We are expecting a pretty day today. Water is still running at 9500 cfs all day and night for now. With Table Rock at 916.3 I imagine it will be that way for a while. Not a problem though, you are still able to anchor or drift. Seems the wind has been more challenging than the current. Gulp is still working as well as ever. Trolling with the Red Flash Buoyant Spoons or with Rapalas has been popular that last few days.. and with success.

Night Crawlers have still been popular….  and have seen more folks using Wax worms in the last few days.

 

Come see us..and have a great day on the lake…

We’ve had quite the mix of weather this week… course that sounds more like a weather report than a fishing report. My point is, that the warm spring break days have been great, and the fishing has been 7 on a scale of one to 10.  With colder weather and snow predicted for this weekend, there will be plenty of cloud cover to fish under.

This past week, Gulp seems to be working the best, on a bottom drift. Pink and Yellow is the best combination, followed by Orange and Yellow.  Nightcrawlers are working well from Fall Creek down to past Cooper Creek. we even had a 17″ Brown Trout yesterday on a night crawler with one of our groups.

Lures that are working well, Thomas Bouyant in the Red Flash pattern or Copper. Little Cleo in the GNR pattern and the Rooster tail in White.

We’ve now got the Swimming Minnows in stock. With the White Bass run starting… be sure you stock up. When you’re in the shop look at our new ABU Garcia Stealth combo, a great little ultra light package with an IM8 Graphite rod and 8 ball bearings in the reel….

Come and see us soon.. and have a great day on the lake.
