Beautiful Day On The Lake

[duckydoty]

DD'sMC and I got out and did a little fishing on upper and lower Lake Taneycomo today. We put in at the Landing around 10:30 a.m. and fished right around the Fish House. Using fly rods and anything from egg patterns to mega worms we caught 8 or 10 fish in that area. After getting bored with that, with 2 units running, we decided to head up to Look Out Island. We fished the bluff side down to Fall Creek and caught several fish. DD'sMC threw Mega Worms and white mink sculpins about 2 feet under an indicator, and I switched from the same set up to a sinking leader and stripped the white mink sculpin. Anywhere there was slack water or a back eddie, we caught fish. Fun day on the water and we ended the day by going back to the Fish House for and early dinner around 4 p.m. No big fish caught today. Biggest ones were in the 14-15 inch range and several in the 10-12 inch range.

Good report Duane, glad you and DD had an entertaining day. I too spent most of the day at the lake. Of course that was at LOZ. Didnt fish, but after 40 days of laying in a hospital bed. I needed a break. Been home about a week now doing rehab. I sat on the patio by the lake, drank coffee, and watched the wildlife go by. Truly great to be in the fresh air again.

Good to get a report from you Rick. You had us all a little scared there for a while. MK kept me updated. We will see you on the water again soon!

Great to see you back on the forum Rick,one step at a time and you'll be back in action again.Figure the fish at Taney were breathing a sigh of relief knowing you had given them the fall season off.
