Christmas can come any time of the year. There can be a gift exchange in July; exactly what took place after fishing Lake Taneycomo in Branson last summer during a one-day vacation.
There was an interview that day at Lilleys’ Landing with guide Duane Doty. After handing Doty a fly box with the midges – my midges – that had worked in the trophy area below Table Rock Dam on a solo trip earlier, we got down to business.
We talked about how Doty got into hand tying jerkbait lures to catch big trout on the same waters.
