One Sunfish This Round

Windy day,... decided to take quick trip to Bethany this afternoon.  Had a few little Bluegill go for a Purple Grasshopper Variant but too small to hook up.  Then, had a Sunfish finally connect.  One Sunfish this round.  Till next time!





PS:  Placed an order with Big Carp Tackle in Oklahoma.  Have ordered from them in the past with excellent service and fast shipping.  This time ordered two BFS Black Phantom Rod MK II "Carp Classic" rods.  Liked how the MadDragon Carp Rod we bought from Bass Pro Shops casts when fishing Denison Dam.  Wanted to see if the Black Phantom would do as well - especially since we could get two Black Phantoms from Big Carp Tackle for the price of one MadDragon from Bass Pro Shops.

Quick Trip to Brockdale Park

No fishing yesterday and a late start this evening. Made it a quick trip to Brockdale Park at Lake Lavon. Brought the Daiwa MadDragon Carp Rod and used a Float and Jig Rig in hopes of catching a few White Bass on the Point.  It was a bust.  Cold temps, wind,... whatever the excuse, did not get a strike.  Saw minimal fish activity and no Shad at the boat ramp.  Still good to do some long distance casting and liked that the water level is up compared to last year!

Bass on a 3 Weight; Catfish on a MadDragon!

Fished Bethany this afternoon using a 3 Weight Fly Rod.  Caught 4 little Bass using a White Damsel Fly and a Guadalupana.  Came back in the evening and fished for Catfish.  Caught three Catfish on Doughbait using the MadDragon Carp Rod we ordered from Bass Pro Shops.  Really like this Carp Rod!

Caught a Few Catfish on Doughtbait This Evening!

Made it to Bethany Lakes this evening and fished for Catfish using the Daiwa MadDragon Carp Rod.  Been testing out a new recipe for Doughtbait.  Seemed to have worked well this round. Caught and released about 15 Catfish.  Fish ranged from 13" to 17" in size.  Fun stuff!

Two More Bullheads Again This Evening, No Bruisers!

Same old, same old,... two more Bullheads at Celebration. Caught one freelining bread; caught the other with the Korda Method Feeder. Still a bust on catching whatever straightened the hook the other day!

Did test out a homemade electronic strike indicator using a battery powered door alarm from the Dollar Store. Worked out nicely, especially when fishing in the dark. Not bad for a dollar!

Also, many thanks to TFF's mikes14 on posting pics of fish caught using the Damsel Fly on the forum (link to post). Been a consistent producer for the Team each year. Even better, it's a simple fly to tie!

New Fishing Rod Arrived... MadDragon 2234

New fishing rod arrived.  Ordered it online from Bass Pro Shops.  It is a Carp Fishing Rod made by Daiwa (Model MadDragon 2234).  It's twelve foot long with a 2.75 lbs test curve.  Added a Penn Reel to it and fished it this evening.  Bite was slow, catching only one Bullhead.  Regardless, like the new rod.  Hope to get a Bruiser or two with it!
