Trout Fishing....Instructional Fly Fishing Trips at Bennett Springs

In between trips to Smithville, Pomme, Truman, etc. I like to go to Bennett Springs and do a little trout fishing.  My dad has a place near the trout park, so we can be down there fishing without much planning or notice.  If you read the "About Me" section on this website you'd know that I "cut my fishing teeth" trout fishing.  Beginnning this year, I think that I've been fishing at Bennett for almost 40 years.  Wow, that's a long time!
 
When I fish Bennett I'm constantly amazed by how few fish people catch.  Most folks get up early to make the buzzer and keep everything they catch to fill out their 4-trout limit.  For me, having 40, 50, and even 100 fish days at Bennett are very common, and I even sleep in and skip the buzzer and the early morning crowds.  Over the years I've helped a number of people catch fish at Bennett, so I've decided to add this as a service....instructional fishing trips at Bennett Springs.
