Warmer day... no strike indicator and a fast retrieve was the key. Bass went 16.5" in size. Will post on the COAF Fishing Leader Board as it meets the 15" minimum, even if it is "kinda skinny"!

Answer to a question on what fishing fly we were using from the Texas Fishing Forum:
ReplyDeleteUsed a Bead Head Olive Wooley Bugger on a fast retrieve. Also, removed the strike indicator that I used to fish it slowly.
Had zero hits on the slow retrieve, then I noticed a little Bass chasing the fly when I was taking the slack out of the line for another cast.
Switched to the fast retrieve and got a few hits but no hookups. Then, noticed the ducks were muddying the water in one area, so I started fishing it. Two light hits with no hookup, then a solid strike by the 16.5" Bass.
