Root Admin Phil Lilley Posted January 22, 2017 Root Admin Posted January 22, 2017 Beautiful day to be on the lake... mixed reports on fishing though. One guy (who placed in the contest), said he didn't catch a trout until after 11 am this morning. Another team said they caught most of their fish in the morning but struggled in the afternoon. Fishing is interesting. Had some good rainbows, and one legal brown. Right at 20 inches, 3.70 pounds. Male. Caught on a jig. Nick Brandon, fishing with Seth Turner. It was the first time fishing Taney for Nick. I'll let Seth tell you the rest. Interesting bags... very few limits at 8 and over. In the Boswell 2 weeks ago we had 10 teams over 8 pounds. Just a different day. Here's some pics. BilletHead, Seth and JestersHK 3
Seth Posted January 22, 2017 Posted January 22, 2017 This was Nicks first time fishing Taneycomo and that brown was his 6th trout ever. It was caught just below Fall Creek on a husky jerk. I was caught off guard because he threw up in about 6" of water and the water just started boiling. Eventually I realized what he had and trolled towards it and told him to get up by me on the front. We followed it for a bit and then it ran towards the motor and I had Nick rush to the back and get the rod in the water. He did a good job playing it and I got the net under it shortly after. If not for that fish, we would have only had 6#. I have the commentary and part of the fight on GoPro. If it turned out decent, I will post it. Im sure it was chaotic! May have to bleep out a few expletives to make it PG.... This was my first trout tourney. I can't wait to fish some others. Hopefully I can get dad talked in to coming down for RAW. If not, me and another buddy should be down for the Elfrink tourney. snagged in outlet 3, crazy4fishin, Johnsfolly and 1 other 4
