Techniques & Gear Rundown

On Lake Taneycomo, we use a mix of techniques to target trout. Drift fishing is a local favorite – we'll let the current do some of the work while we present our bait or lures to the fish. If the bite is slow, we might switch to trolling to cover more water. For bait, we often use natural options like worms or salmon eggs, but artificial lures like small spinners and jigs can be deadly too. We provide all the gear you'll need, including light to medium action rods perfect for fighting those spirited trout. Don't worry if you're new to these methods – we'll walk you through everything and have you fishing like a pro in no time.

Species You'll Want to Hook

Rainbow Trout: These guys are the stars of Lake Taneycomo. Known for their beautiful colors and acrobatic fights, rainbows here can range from pan-sized to trophy specimens over 20 inches. They're active year-round but really turn on in the cooler months. Rainbows in Taneycomo are known for their hard fights and tasty fillets – it's no wonder they're a favorite among our guests.

Brown Trout: While not as numerous as rainbows, the brown trout in Lake Taneycomo are the ones that keep anglers coming back for "just one more cast." These fish can grow to impressive sizes, with specimens over 30 inches not unheard of. Browns are a bit wilier than their rainbow cousins, often preferring to hang out in deeper holes or under cover. Landing a big brown is always a highlight of any trip – they're known for powerful runs and head-shaking jumps that'll test your skills and your gear.
