Taneycomo 7/9 and 7/10

[Ryan Miloshewski]

Went down with my grandpa and cousin John to fish an evening and day. Fished Sunday evening with jigs and caught quite a few fish from 5-7pm. Only running a half unit of water and they wanted 1/16-ounce and 1/32-ounce thrown at them. Lots of nice rainbows and I landed a 21-inch brown. Beautiful fish.

John and I fished for a couple hours yesterday morning with the water off. I threw a hopper and he threw a jig. I only caught one fish, but it was a great 21-inch rainbow. Absolutely crushed the hopper. Only bite I got all morning, but well worth it. John caught quite a few on 1/32-oz jigs.

We then went a got my grandpa and fished 3-7pm. It was warm but not too hot out there, and we caught quite a few browns on jerkbaits and jigs. We actually caught more browns than rainbows (22 browns to 7 rainbows). Nothing over 20-inches landed, but quite a few 17-19.5-inch fish. John and I both had one on that would have been great to land--nothing huge, but definitely in the 21-23-inch range. Took two trebles to the left index finger while unhooking a small brown. That hurt and caused a delay of 15 min or so. Pro tip: don't do that, it hurts. Home for a couple days then back down Friday..

Here I tie these articulated streamers for my friends and they throw them in the trees in four casts. Tsk, tsk..
