Trophy Trout
Catch & Release
Since the late 1990s, Lilleys’ Landing has been handing out catch-and-release pins and certificates to anglers who successfully release a 20-inch or longer rainbow or brown trout on Lake Taneycomo. This program has encouraged fishermen of all ages to release thousands of trophy trout for others to enjoy.
This is a list of those entries we have on record since July 2018.
