Hello all

[NoBarb]

Greetings to all from Bruce aka NoBarb,

I have been fishing in Missouri for trout since the late 60's when my dad first took me to Taney,and some of the trout parks,Meramec,Montauk&Bennett,and the waters below each.

My family is native to the Pacific north west,so fly fishing Trout and Steelhead is in our blood.

Hi gonefishin,I am within an hour drive of the Meramec Trophy water,so much of my fly fishing is done there.Otherwise the Current Trophy area,Montauk,or Bennett.

In the late summer/fall finds me at TANNEY! I save most of my vacation for Taney.

Thanks for the welcome, Yes I have some stories,but it seemed in those days all of my stories would be of the other guy catching the lunkers.I saw some awesome rainbows caught,but the big boys usually escaped me.Now if I was to observe the bull riding rule...

The quality of the Taney fishery is awesome now,these past fall months-wow.Seems every day I fished(I fly fish wading below the Dam) I would see at least one monster Brown,in the 27"-3' catagory.I probably have some of my best lunker stories from this past fall at Taney.

I am about an hour from Bennet so I fish there in the summer. Like you I spend most of my time at Taney in the fall/winter.

Maybe we will see each other on the stream sometime.
