Morning Outing To Bethany Lakes....

Fished Bethany Lakes this morning and caught the usual suspects... Bass, Bluegill, and Sunfish. Used an Olive Damsel Fly, then  Deer Hair Bug, and closed with a White Foam Rubber Grasshopper Variant. Fun stuff!

Tenkara for Lunch Anyone!

Been tough working our day jobs.  Busy times... regardless, gotta make time for the important things like Fishing!  Took a break at lunch and did a little Tenkara Fishing.  Caught one Sunfish on a Purple Damsel Fly and three little Bass on an Olive Crawdad!  Fun stuff, just went by too fast.

Cool Front and Rain Showers Changed the Pattern...

Cool front and rain showers moved in the last few days.  Definitely changed the pattern!  Sun came out today and hopefully temps will warm up soon.  Was able to fish one of the local ponds  using the Tenkara Rod and a Damsel Fly.  Had two strikes and misses, then a hookup on a Bass.  Only problem was it came loose on the bank and flopped quickly back in to the water.  Finally managed to land one and take a picture of it - a little Bass.

Warmer Temps By This Afternoon, Decided to Fish Bethany This Evening

Cold front arrived yesterday. Temps were cold this morning but by afternoon warmer temps were had.  Decided to fish Bethany this evening after work and see what the action was like.

Took the Tenkara Rod to keep things simple,.... Had no problem catching two Bass and four Sunfish.  Did lose a couple of Bass that we estimated at two pounds!  Should have brought a net!

Only Two Bass This Round!

Cold front arrived last night along with a storm.  Bite slowed down compared to the last few days and the water was higher and murky.  Ended up catching two little Bass on a slowly retrieved Purple Damsel Fly!  Posted a short video of today's action below:

12 Bass and 2 Bluegill Taken On Damsel Flies and Tenkara Rod!

Could not let yesterday's Goldfish on a Tenkara Rod go unanswered.  Went to the local catch and release pond that we hit last week and braved the winds!  It was tough fishing but managed to work the fishing flies near the surface and maintain a steady retrieve with the Tenkara Rod.  Ended the outing with twelve Bass and two Bluegill caught and released. Short video clip posted below.

Another Round Fishing a Local Pond, 5 Bluegill and 1 Little Bass

Went to a local fishing pond for another round of fishing.  Things started out okay with a decent Bass striking the Purple Damsel Fly.  However, a line break ends the fight and the Bass getting away.

Afterwards, caught mainly Bluegill and one little Bass.  Posted a short video of the outing below.  Check it out when you get chance!
