American National Fish and Wildlife Museum The American National Fish and Wildlife Museum educates visitors about the value of fish and wildlife, helps them appreciate the heritage of hunting and fishing, and motivates their personal involvement in the conservation of natural resources. It is an excellent facility well worth visiting, and is conveniently located in Springfield, Missouri next to the Bass Pro Shops Outdoor World.
Black Dog Sports Mid-Missouri TU member Tom James' Web site offers several items of interest, including two professionally produced videos. The first is Fly Fishing Missouri's Trout Streams, which gives the viewer an overview of the fine trout fishing opportunities we have here in Missouri. The second is The North Fork of the White River, which focuses on the river that has the largest population of wild trout in the region. The North Fork video is particularly fun to watch because it features Mid-Missouri TU member and outdoor writer Spencer Turner in action. It also features a number of other people you may know, including guide Shawn Taylor of Tecumseh, Missouri and Myron McKee of the River of Life Farm.
Branson Outdoor Activities Message Board This message board usually includes some good threads about trout fishing in Lake Taneycomo. The usual warnings about message boards apply, of course, so take things you read with a grain of salt.
Ozark Chronicles Message Board Another Missouri message board that includes discussions of interest to Missouri trout anglers. Again, as with any message board, don't believe everything you read.
Conservation Federation of Missouri Like every other major conservation organization in the state, Mid-Missouri Trout Unlimited is affiliated with the Conservation Federation of Missouri. The Conservation Federation was originally the grassroots organization that brought about the creation of the Missouri Department of Conservation, and it did much to bring about the small sales tax that funds MDC. The ongoing work of the Conservation Federation of Missouri does a tremendous amount of good, and this Web site contains a lot of important information.
Missouri Department of Conservation Fishing Page The Missouri Department of Conservation's Web site contains a wide variety of information that you are sure to find interesting. Among many other things, it includes the Plan for Missouri Trout Fishing that was approved by the Conservation Commission of October 9, 2003, and issues of The Missouri Conservationist Magazine .
Missouri Department of Natural Resources News Like MDC, the Missouri Department of Natural Resources has a good Web site covering a large number of subjects of interest. Reading the DNR News Releases page is a good way to keep abreast of important developments happening around the state.
Ozark Anglers.com Branson Trout Unlimited member Phil Lilley owns and operates the famous Lilley's Landing on Lake Taneycomo. His Web site has a wide variety of useful information, and even includes some fascinating photos of the freshwater shrimp he keeps in an aquarium.
Ozark Weather and Trout Fishing Reports Mid-Missouri TU member Jim Washabaugh's Web site contains a great deal of information about the spring creeks in our Missouri parks. It includes a page of weather and fishing report links that can help you get the most enjoyment out of your time on the stream, regardless of where you fish in the region.
River of Life Farm Myron McKee's River of Life Farm is a favorite destination of many Mid-Missouri TU members, and has been featured in a number of major publications. The Falls is an excellent place to fish on the North Fork, and the River of Life Farm has a great deal to offer the non-angling members of your family as well. As mentioned above, it was featured in Tom James' terrific video, The North Fork of the White River, if you'd like to learn more.
Stream Side Adventures Norm Crisp is one of the nation's most knowledgeable fly fishers and is a strong supporter of Mid-Missouri TU and coldwater conservation. His Web site is excellent and contains a great deal of interest including information about his guide service, seminars, online how-to fly fishing information, and much more.
The Tying Bench Mid-Missouri TU member Mark Van Patten has an excellent television show that is carried on many PBS stations. Here in Mid-Missouri, it can be seen on KMOS, out of Warrensburg. Mark's Web site has some really good information, including fly recipes and how you can order copies of previous programs for a very reasonable cost.
