Gatorjet Posted December 30, 2009 Posted December 30, 2009 There are several good guides on Taney, I'm sure Phil can help you with finding what you want. I don't know where you are from, but if you are in the St.Louis ares, Phil will be doing a seminar at Queeny Park on January 12. You can learn a lot about all types of fishing on Taneycomo from this program. Real men go propless!
Root Admin Phil Lilley Posted December 30, 2009 Root Admin Posted December 30, 2009 If you call our lodge, Bill Babler is our #1 guide. If he's busy, we have numerous others, most specialize in fishing the trophy area. We'll be sure to put you with someone that matches your needs as well as desire to learn how to fish the upper lake.
