Bottom of the 9th

[MNtransplant]

Started fishing around 6 with no luck, threw jigs in brown and olive, stripped woolies and clousers, tried a jerkbait..nothin...when it got dark i dug to the bottom of the tacklebox and found a baby ratl trap that i normally throw for white bass up on the little sac..first cast and after 3 cranks got crushed by a chubby 19" rainbow...proceeded to give me heck after getting in the net. Broke a set of trebles and flipped out of the net right as i took the picture...but still kicked off all ticked off at me.

About 5 casts later a small walleye smashed me with about 6 feet of line out so that was a nice little scare..

An otherwise unsuccessful trip was turned around in the last 20 minutes.

I think I could get into the night fishing thing on Taneycomo.

Every drive back to Springfield I just keep thinking how blessed I am to have such an awesome fishery close by as well as the opportunity to enjoy it. God has been very good to me.

Now don't  get @JestersHK started with that kind of talk 🙄! There will be no work done if he has an additional partner in crime on the all night Taney fishing.

Seriously. That's  a nice rainbow!

Trust me John he's got me trying to find ways to free up my schedule and get down there.

Hoping we get to sync up next time I'm down. 

Love seeing the success buddy.   Keep it up! I'd be in trouble if I lived in Springfield lol.

Right after he texted me saying he wasn't catching he sent me these pics haha. Amazing how it can turn quickly. Great job, Tyler!

Man I've been slammed since all this hit... initially got let go and my contract was canceled... then they called be me back in a week later and I've been running hard ever since.  

I've had 3 more termination dates and they keep extending me out... I can't turn down the money, but as soon as I'm out of work again im taking some me time and going to try and stay a while at Taney and the White.

Tyler has it figured out.  Just have to work on getting time to fish together setup.  That goes for you too Ryan
