Member since October 2023 Branson, United States
Background
Been fishing locally and in major tournaments for 40 years. Finally decided to get a Captain's license and guide. I have done around 50 trips so far this year. Have a 5-star โญ rating on Google Maps. Fish On Guide service, Hollister MO.
Techniques
For Trout on lake Taneycomo it depends if they are running water or not. When the is running drifting it is great. If water is not running I like to tight line. As for Table Rock it changes with the season. Spring is my favorite time
