hillbillyflyshack 65 Report post Posted November 5 Took my son Chance trout fishing for the first time and we had a ball with him catching his first rainbow. Saturday the water was running pretty hard so we went up and strarted at the cable throwing small crankbaits and the fish loved them with a beautiful male that was 18 3/4 inches that made his day and mine. We caught at least 30 with many 2 to 2 1/2 lbers WOW what a day the Lord blessed us with but Sunday was another wonderful day in large part due to Duane Doty and his vast knowledge and I owe him a debt of gratitude as he helped my son and I have a great bonding weekend. Thank you so much Duane you are truly a professional and a gentleman.

oneshot 667 Report post Posted November 6 I always remember going to Taney as a Kid. Branson was about 300 people. One theater no food allowed. Always remember the smells and the fog. Nice to teach a Kid fishing, glad he had fun. oneshot Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Remember going to Silver Dollar City to me it was more fun than now but kids are different and it is more about money. We had Tickets for two days but couldn’t handle one day. Use to fish Taney it was different but know people catch Ice Chest full no way Hatchery could keep up with that. I went to Cooper Creek dock caught some. Cooked them up and tasted the same as out of the river so why drive 100 miles one way We are burnt out on the shows so they are out. I thought go down for Christmas Lights but was told we wouldn’t enjoy ourselves. Anymore like to stay in Forsyth. Taney and Branson to me is a good place to take kids for awhile. oneshot 1 snagged in outlet 3 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
