Our fishing report for Lake Taneycomo could be a cookie cutter analogy of last month’s report.  Our generation pattern is exactly the same our water temperature is about the same and the bite is also the same as in June and July.  The trout are locked into a daily pattern of eating and resting just […] The post August 1 2023 Fishing Report appeare...

Generation patterns on Lake Taneycomo this summer have been consistent.  Operators at the dam ran water every afternoon for the month of June.  The only variant was on hot days they started it about 2 p.m. and ended after dark and on cooler days they started it about 4 p.m. but still shut it off […] The post July 1 2023 Fishing Report appeared fir...

We are enjoying a mild start to summer here on Lake Taneycomo.  After a relatively dry spring there’s not much rain in our forecast.  Our lakes are fairly low with the exception of Beaver Lake which is a few feet high.  Generation pattern?  There isn’t one. When I write a fishing report I attempt to […] The post June 1 2023 Fishing Report appeared...

April has been a spectacular month for catching trout here on Lake Taneycomo. Reports from guests and guides alike relay copious amounts of fish — and many quality trophy-sized fish as well. Our trophy catch-and-release program has recorded 105 trophy trout caught and released. A record April for the books! Table Rock Lake is down […] The post May...

It is definitely spring time here on Lake Taneyomo!  Spring rain has fallen and our water is running hard.  We’ve seen spill gates open for most of the month of March which makes fishing both hard and good.  It of course makes fishing off the bank or docks very hard because of the speed and […] The post April 1 2023 Fishing Report appeared first o...

Overall conditions on Lake Taneycomo couldn’t get any more stable than we’ve experienced the last couple of weeks.   Two units have generated flow nonstop day and night.  A little variation in the flow but not much.  Lakes above and below us are all within six inches of their seasonal power pool but there is one […] The post March 2 2023 Fishing R...

We’ve enjoyed a long dry spell that has given us long periods of no generation here on Lake Taneycomo. That has been especially nice for fly fishing. But we’re starting to see rain in the forecast with one two-day rain event winding up as I type this report. We should start seeing more generation in […] The post February 9 2023 Fishing Report appe...

The year 2022 will go down in the record books as one of the best lunker trout years in recent history.  It may not have surpassed the “good ole’ days of the 60’s and 70’s” but I think we gave them a run. Just that we recorded so many trout longer than 20 inches compared […] The post January 10 2023 Fishing Report appeared first on Lilleys' Landin...

We’ve enjoyed a lot of down water this fall here on Lake Taneycomo.  And with the long cold spell in late October and into November Table Rock Lake has turned over. Now we’re benefiting from the great oxygenated water when the dam turbines are running.  We’re anticipating a very good winter trout fishing season. Fly […] The post December 1 2022 Fi...

During October we saw no generation for a large portion of the month. With an abnormally dry summer and fall season Table Rock’s elevation is setting at 909.58ft. The power pool for this time of the year is 917.00ft putting Table Rock almost 9ft below its normal seasonal depth.  We have measured some dissolved oxygen […] The post November 3 2022 F...

For this October we’re met with a “new normal” here on Lake Taneycomo.  The minimum flow we enjoyed for most of two months ceased — replaced by no flow.  Yes officials shut everything down on Wednesday Sept. 28 and it’s been off in the mornings and part of the afternoon ever since.  When the water […] The post October 1 2022 Fishing Report appeare...

It’s been a wild summer here on Lake Taneycomo.  Dozens and dozens of big rainbow and brown trout have been caught — and 95% released to be caught again!  That figure isn’t official but just my estimate of what I observe on the lake.   “Catching” in general has been good but our guides report it’s slowing […] The post September 3 2022 Fishing Repo...

Are we seeing the new “minimum flow” here on Lake Taneycomo?  Back in the mid 1990’s the Missouri Department of Conservation conducted tests to determine the ideal minimum flow for our lake.  It was in conjunction with the same tests the Arkansas Game and Fish did below Bull Shoals Dam on the White River.  Arkansas […] The post August 1 2022 Fishi...

Our skies have dried up now that it’s summer in the Ozarks and our lakes have somewhat stabilized.  Beaver Lake is still a bit high but Table Rock Lake is below its seasonal power pool so our generation is slow and consistent.  They’re running a little less than a full unit 24/7 which makes trout […] The post July 1 2022 Fishing Report appeared fi...

I don’t know where to start this report as far as the generation/flow. I usually include an educated guess on what officials may do with generation but I have no idea at this point. So all I can do it state the facts. Beaver Lake I think is about at 1 128 feet but there’s no […] The post June 2 2022 Fishing Report appeared first on Lilleys' Landin...

After almost a full of day of rain Monday I’m expecting the lakes above Lake Taneycomo to head upwards again.  Here’s a quick run down: Beaver Lake rose to 1 127.6 feet after rains last week.  Officials aren’t releasing much water.  It’s flood pool level is 1 130 feet so it doesn’t have far to go to […] The post May 3 2022 Fishing Report appeared...

Our report on generation patterns is an easy one although it may change very shortly.  Operators at the dam have been running two units of water — about 6 500 cubic feet of water per second — non stop for a week now.  But after about a two-inch rain Wednesday and Thursday the lakes are on […] The post April 1 2022 Fishing Report appeared first on...

Rain and cold have dominated many days this past month.  We’ve had snow ice sleet and rain all amounting to some sloppy weekends of travel and fishing here on Lake Taneycomo.  But the diehards stayed tough and enjoyed some great days fishing for trout (and crappie!) Generation has been nonstop since the first of February.  […] The post March 1 202...

I usually start my fishing reports talking about generation and fishing conditions.  This dictates how we are fishing which is most important.  But I need to report on how catching has been this past month.  And to be honest there have been a lot of anglers who have been pretty frustrated with catching trout. Now […] The post February 1 2022 Fishi...
