Fly Fishing Adventures
Jeff’s summaries of his fly fishing exploits.
The Niangua River – Browns, Bows and Smallies
Just a mere 11 miles west of Lebanon, Missouri lies Bennet Spring State Park. The spring itself is pretty amazing as somewhere in the range of 110 million gallons of cold spring water bubbles up from Mother Earth each day and trickles northward towards The Niangua River.
