Lilleys' Taneycomo Fishing Report, March 12

[Phil Lilley]

Well, I thought about writing a report along with this video but I'm not sure what else to add. There's these fish pics I guess...

And there's the bait I could list you can use below Fall Creek but you should know the list by now: Gulp Eggs with one white and one other color (2 eggs), night crawlers and minnows. Minnows have been really good the last couple of weeks, catching some nice brown trout.

Not much current so don't use much weight.

Steve Dickey, one of our guides, told me this afternoon that his clients "killed" them this morning, drifting an egg fly/scud combo in the trophy area, then did well below Fall Creek fishing a ginger micro jig under a float 8 feet deep.

That's 2 trout- one rainbow and one brown in those pictures. Not 5 trout.

Showing off the colors.

This past season, the rainbows have been colored up better than any year that I can recall. FRom scarlet to red to pink and throw in some orange, and the fish are in tiptop shape. Beautiful colors, fat bellies and hard fighters.

Great report. I'll see tomorrow.

Quick question with the rain today will they likely be running a lot of water this weekend?
