I will be making my first trip to bennet srings oct 14 15. I normally go to montauk so i have no clue were to fish in bennet. I fly fish so i would like to stay away from the bait fishermen as much as possible if it is possible. i was just wondering what part of the park to fish and if anyone has any pointers anything is appreciated! Thanks!

That fish is beautiful!

I started saturday morning fishing in the fly area only above the white oak hole around 10am. I caught 6 on a black midge..fished for about a hour there the tool a lunch break then headed outside the park and fish from tan-vat to below the rocks and caught 4 and turned 2. I fished there for about a hour then headed down to baptist camp and fished for an hour and didn't catch a fish I threw a couple different patterns but couldn't even get a bit this was the first time I have fished there and didn't catch a fish...so I headed back to the park and fished in the fly area above the catch and release and did pretty good and was still catching a lot of fish on the midge. So overall it was a pretty good weekend i had my wife with me so I couldn't wonder off all day and fish favorite spots on the river but I still made the best of the weekend

Nice video! That is my favorite stretch of river to fish!!

I would love to have one!

I stayed at the cabins above the hill right by happy pappys and they where nice. I think there website is montaukcabins.com

Congrats...my favorite place to stay in Branson!

What size tippet was he using? It looked like he wasn't afraid of breaking his line when he pulled them fish right up to the boat.

Got down to lillys Thursday morning this is the only the second time I have ever been down to taneycomo and it was a blast! I was fly fishing with scuds nymphs below a indicator and caught a lot of fish and hooked in to the biggest fish of my life I would say a 4-5 pound 20 inch brown but I had 6x tippet on and he got in the current and I just couldn't get him close enough to net but it was a blast fighting a fish like that I had the feeling of watching a big buck walking my way. I love how all the fish are a nice size. My normal trout fishing destination is montauk and I love fishing in the fly area and outside the park but fishing Taney is so much better! Cannot wait to come back again in the spring and hopefully land a big fish!
