Taylors Bridge


Recommended Posts

Made a scouting trip yesterday to taylor. Never been there before and thank you to Bill Butts for directions. Did the run from Vernon County. 70 miles one way but it was worth the scout. I caught a few right under the bridge. Now to todays trip. Buddy and I got up early, hooked up his small jet boat, made the run and launched pretty early. We were the first boat but there were four kayaks and a small flat bottom getting ready. Several people up and down river with fish on there stringers. We ran up and started fishing. Hammered them. I threw a gray over white clouser size 4 and 2 on the fly rod. It is all I used and quit counting whites when I hit 70. Best day ever I think I have had for white bass. Also caught a keeper walleye and two largemouth. One of them was about three pounds. the whites hit close to shore to out in the middle on the bottom, some even striking as I lifted the fly out of the water. when we left seen all four kayaks, three canoes, flat bottom boat and another jet rig like I was in today plus a two man pontoon bass hunter type boat. Bookoos people on the bank. This was about 2:30 when we quit. Fis bit all day long and there was nowhere we did not catch. Concetrated on the holes and runs below riffles. We did explore and got close to the 215? bridge. Did go under the old railroad crossing walk/ bike trail. Better get out there but I bet it will be a zoo this weekend,
