Foam Spider and Scud Tandem Rig for Bluegill #flyfishing

Finally found the pattern for the tight lipped Bluegill at the local pond. Went with a tandem rigged foam spider and scud!

Most fish went for the trailing scud and was surprised the little bass were readily striking the scud!

Foam Spider was a diy pattern made from Wapsi’s Foam Spider Kit. The Scud was a old pattern learned from a library fly tying video… uses possum or hares ear dubbing tied on a size 16 hook with a dubbing loop.

Liking this tandem rig… plan to use it on the commute to work on a couple of ponds!

Fun stuff!

More Fun at Russell Creek Park!

Spent the afternoon fly fishing at Russell Creek Park in Plano.  Mainly used the Yellow Foam Spider but did catch a few with a Pheasant Tail Nymph and a Griffith's Gnat.  Caught and released 34... fun stuff!

Fished Bethany This Morning

Fished Bethany this morning; had a little rain but was not enough to call it quits.  Caught Bass, Sunfish/Bluegill, and a nice Shellcracker using several fishing flies - BH Antron Streamer, Lefty Deceiver, and a Foam Spider.  Edited this morning's video to show a few highlights of the outing; tried a slow-motion feature for a Bass we lost and a Bass we caught!  Fun stuff!

Out and About This Round

Was out and about this evening, trying for an action shot close up of fish taking a fishing fly.  Was a tough go; managed to catch Bluegill and Bass but had a hard time getting a close up.  No worries,... still ha fun catching them!

Bethany Creek, then Bethany Lakes This Round


Checked out Bethany Creek; caught two Bass using a Lefty Deceiver.  No Bruisers but did see a couple of nice looking ones lurking in the area!

Then, went down the road to the Back Pond at Bethany Lakes.  Noticed the area nearest the Feeder Creek was covered with algae.  Went on to the deeper end, and worked a Foam Spider.  Caught three Bluegill and two more Bass!

Fun stuff!

Warmer Temps and Bluegill/Sunfish are Nesting, Great Time Catching Them on the Tenkara Rod!

Warmer temps made for a comfortable outing at Bethany Lakes.  Observed Bluegill/Sunfish nesting in the shallows.  Brought the Tenkara Rod and a White Foam Spider.  Good news... surface action was happening!  Had a great time catching (and releasing the scrappy fighters).  Caught 24 fish, two were little Bass.  Else it was Bluegill and Sunfish!

Quick Trip Yields Two Bass...

Been hectic at our day jobs but did manage to make it to Bethany for a quick 30" trip.  Went with a Flyrod and a White Foam Spider.  Wind was strong but did manage to cast good enough to hook a couple of Bass.  No Bruisers but still fun.  Also caught a few small Sunfish but opted not to take pictures of them.
