Thank you for creating the app, I just downloaded it and it looks great!
-
I maybe late to the party on this one......My phone says the generation app got disabled? Is there a new one in it's place?
-
That will REALLY suck if true, we were getting alot of nice brownies back in the joint.

I know a guy that caught a 40 pound spoonbill on lower Taney a few years back and I saw one dead that big floating down at rockaway once.

Lilley's Lake Taneycomo fishing report, September 1
Travis Swift replied to Phil Lilley's topic in Upper Lake Taneycomo
Headed down tomorrow, can’t freaking wait! -
Pretty cool deal, Blake Wilson's client caught that big rainbow again yesterday not far from where I caught it as well. That made me really happy to see because I fought it a long time and had worn it down pretty good so we took plenty of time making sure it was good and healthy and cared for when we released it then boom someone else got the joy of catching it less than a week later. Made me so darn happy to see!

I loved my American Angler for years and still do but I have the cordless Bubba now and it's been phenomenal.

Just spent last week at Taney. I spent most of the week trying to target bigger fish on my new line of jerkbaits I’ve been painting for a couple of months. Ended up with a 20.5 inch brown a 21 inch brown and a beautiful tank of a Bow that was 25 inches that I caught on a homemade jig I pour and tie. Was so much fun on 2 pound test. Got to hang out with some awesome guys from Hooked on Vets and they absolutely whacked them as well. Was really an awesome week and can’t wait to get back down as always!

Single Hook Only - above Fall Creek
Travis Swift replied to Brian K. Shaffer's topic in Upper Lake Taneycomo
The fish in Taney are in the best shape they have been in for decades. The quality is unreal. I recently caught a big brown on a jerkbait, took great care of it and released it and it was caught again 2 weeks later. In fact if you watch the taneycomo facebook pages you will see the same fish being caught alot and plenty of those are on treble hooked baits. Enforce current rules and leave the rest of us alone. -

4 plus ones, a couple of been lightly used but all in good shape. All have upgraded Aaron Martens size 5 Nano Hooks. $70 TYD
-
I was down lake a couple of weeks ago past Rockaway and it was stagnant nasty water with floating dead grass all over. This should help flush it out and breath new life into it down that way too.
-
This was really well done. Only thing I would have added is rebar (unless I missed it) and the narrows weren’t represented correctly because there wasn’t 19 boats stacked in there side ways with no generation 🤣. All jokes aside that was an awesome video!
-
What a touching tribute to an absolute Taneycomo legend. Sounds like you were truly blessed to know him.
-
Getting kinda tough to find. Anymore I just take a 5 gallon can with me that has one of the spickets that won't release till it's in the tank then you squeeze a trigger. Way cheaper, takes a few minutes and don't have to try to hunt down fuel.
-
All new. The 110+1 are Ozark Shad have upgraded Aaron Martens nano hooks on them. The regular vision (go crystal shad) has stock hooks. $65 tyd for all 3.
-
One of these years I’m gonna make one of these. That looks like a fun group of great people!

I think almost all the guides report theirs as it’s a real thrill for the clients and they get a great keep sake memento. I think there are some regulars that don’t report anymore. I know in my boat alone we had 4 that would have gotten certificates last year that we didn’t report and a couple of those were over 23. I used to frame and hang all my certificates next to a framed picture of this fish. Makes an awesome display. Now days if you don’t catch at least one over 20 in a couple days of fishing we’ve done something wrong so we snap pics and release. Taney has spoiled all of us the past few years no doubt! So I do think there are quite a few that don’t get reported as well. I think it’s a fantastic deal that Lilleys does this and I love it and I truly think it’s helped the fishing! I appreciate everything Phil and the gang does for this lake we all love.

My donation is in. Step up and help gang (I know you guys and gals will).

I've been there 2 years in a row and sure there are bass going to the bank to spawn but there are also giants spawning out in the middle of the darn lake. Hard to believe, I'm not here for a debate. I saw what they were doing with my own eyes and talked to a guy that looked like he had seen a ghost doing that technique with a guide. That guy lives there and had no idea anything like that was possible. Again this technology is unlocking things we never knew happened or possible. If you don't believe me that's okay to just relaying what I saw and heard first hand at that lake two years in a row. Below is the guy I talked to. He was setting in his truck after the guide trip and as I was talking to him he was shaking to much to even text his buddies to tell them the story.

I wish it was me my friend.......:(
