Root Admin Phil Lilley Posted April 18, 2013 Root Admin Posted April 18, 2013 Hey I'm more excited about this: JP Cummings, our 3rd grand child.
Root Admin Phil Lilley Posted April 19, 2013 Root Admin Posted April 19, 2013 I'm humbled by the article... I didn't know it was going to be about me so much as the fishing. It did get me thinking about people's perception of me in regards to trout fishing on Taney... I'm not the guru people think I am here. I'm not that diverse. I jig fish, fly fish only some areas. I don't bait fish and seldom fish below Fall Creek. Yea I've been here 30 years- the old man on the block (except for Acton's at Blue Haven) but that doesn't make me any more of an expert than the next person. Now Ken White, the writer, that was a treat meeting and fishing with this guy. Somebody needs to write a book about him and what he's done in his life. The most impressive thing - 12 kids and 42 grand kids! Then there's the people he's met, photographed. I really enjoyed fishing and talking to Ken. Hope to again soon.
rainbow Posted April 19, 2013 Posted April 19, 2013 Congrats to Megan and the new addition to the family. The article was great but the little one is a blessing. We have been blessed 8 times.
Blazerman Posted April 19, 2013 Posted April 19, 2013 Took a while to find this article so I thought i would post the link to make it easier to read. http://www.news-leader.com/article/20130418/LIFE06/304180036/1282/life0605/Phil-Lilley-knows-his-way-around-Taneycomo-trout Very nice article too. Congrats on the little one as well.
DaddyO Posted April 19, 2013 Posted April 19, 2013 "In this century it is difficult to find a man such as Lilley. He is a man of his own, and I think he likes it that way." Nicely done. I think the writer hit the nail on the head with that statement. Congrats, Phil. DaddyO We all make decisions; but, in the end, our decisions make us.
Members Wornica Posted April 20, 2013 Members Posted April 20, 2013 A great article about a great man! Enjoyed hearing you at the MTFA meeting in Springfield back in February and appreciate so much the Ozark Anglers Forum!
ness Posted April 21, 2013 Posted April 21, 2013 Congrats Phil. I think they missed a whole bunch in the article, but heck, you take what you get. How many grandbabies is that now? John
