Made it to New Braunfels for some fishing fun. Planned to fish the Guadalupe River by Faust Street Bridge, but it was closed. Headed to Landa Park and fished the Comal River. Was a slow bite with only one Bluegill and a Bass caught. Both went for a Guadalupana!

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!

Pond Fly Fishing - Tough Round #maxcatch
Another round of pond fishing at the local pond. Had a Bass take a Foam Grasshopper, then spent most of the time working Bluegill on their nest. Had a few missed strikes while trying a number of fishing flies.
Did have several little Bass show interest as well as little Sunfish readily taking a Foam Grasshopper by the Waterfall.
That said, cannot catch them all… that’s fishing!

Quick Trip This Round with the Switch Rod....
Things were promising with a nice Bass hooked but lost when it broke the line. After a few more casts, had another one take but this time it threw the hook. Finally, third time was a charm... hooked and landed a Bass.
So, this round two misses and one Bass! Fun stuff!

No Bruisers But Still Had a Fun Time Catching Fish!
Did not hook up with any Bruisers but still had a fun time catching little Bass on a Four Weight Fly Rod. Caught one Bass on a Foam Rubber Grasshopper, and then the remainder went for the COAF Guadalupana that we tie.
Did see some decent Bass chasing bait fish near the banks; none wanted our fishing flies though. No worries, still caught a few... and even better, still beats working!

Found a Pattern This Round
Then, noticed small dragonfly looking bugs hovering over the water's surface. Not sure what they were, but they looked to be about a Size 12 and were reddish/brown. Found a Size 12 Dry Fly that had a little color to it in the fly box. Tied it on the line, and started hooking up with Bluegill and a couple of little Bass!
Fun stuff!
