Thread: HELP

Oh heck yes!! Tablerock for regular fishing, Taneycomo if you want to try your hand at trout fishing. If you want to go a little further there is Stockton and Pomme not far up the road. Branson is a great area, just learn the back roads as soon as you can because getting from one spot to another can be.........wayyyyy beyond frustrating.

Just to let you know, that IF they are NOT letting out water at Taneycomo, the Trout do not bite. justjerkin and I spent spent a whole week down there Trout fishing and the water needs to flow before the fish bite in front of the Landing.

Thanx for the info!! Can I troll crankbaits in these lakes with out loosing my wallet?

Also wondering about Stockton and Pomme.

I know Stockton and Pomme have a lot of crankbait guys, but not sure about Tablerock. Taneycomo is more drift fishing I think.

Don't know about trolling for Trout. Water is GIN clear at Taneycomo, around the Landing, up from the landing everywhere we went it was clean and clear. Check the fishing regulations, I don't know. WE used Marabou jigs, yellow and brown, Salmon Eggs was NOT working.

Everyone I've seen at Tanecomo just drifts with the current bouncing the bottom

The only place your going to loose your wallet is from your wife shopping! All jokes aside bring a lot of money! We live in Springfield and we drive down to Branson to buy shoes for myself and my wife at the Nike Factory Outlet Store. My wife is on her feet a lot with her job at the hospital and we can drive down there and buy us just 2 pairs each and its like buy one get one free compared to the prices of the same Nike shoes up here.

Also plan a trip to Springfield to Bass Pro! Go to the Outlet Store next door to the main store. Check out the fishing rods! Take your time, dig thru the fishing rods! I have purchased good ultra light rods for $5.00 to $20.00 each.

Also since I read you have a little one! Check out the Shepherd of the Hills Fish Hatchery. Here is a link to give you some information on it! Shepherd of the Hills Fish Hatchery Information | Missouri Department of Conservation Its a great place to get pictures and memories that will last a lifetime!

Stockton and Pomme de Terre offer some good fishing sometimes. But your looking at somewhere from an hour and a half to 2 hours drive time from Branson. Right now Stockton, Pomme de Terre and Truman are getting lots of water in them due to all the rain in the area. I would just watch the reports from the Missouri board most the guys on here say it like it is so you can trust their reports.
