Missouri Lakes Fishing Report

Lake - Tanneycomo 12/17/06:

Best fly patterns for the week: More and more Rainbows are showing up below the dam as it appears the Browns are about done. Best flies continue to be scuds, soft shell scuds, g-bugs, sow bugs and egg patterns. Natural colors are still best with shades of brown, tan and khaki being most productive and olive or grey close behind. Coral and pink have been the top egg colors. The number of anglers has dropped of over the past week so it is a great time to fish.

Best spinning tackle: Still few changes over the past week; drift rigs continue to produce best day in and day out. Live crawlers, power eggs in pink or orange and power nuggets all seem to work equally as well. Remember to mix up your colors on the power eggs and nuggets it will draw more strikes. Like always if you can be on the water when the generators are running the bite is much better; Roostertails, Little Cleos and Buoyant Spoons are all effective when the current flows.
