Foam Beetle Does Well Again!

Busy day but managed to make it for a quick trip to Bethany before dark.  Caught four Bass and a Bluegill using a Foam Beetle!  Bass continue to feed on the "bugs" flying about.

Six Bass and a Bluegill this Evening

Made it to Bethany this evening.  Was hoping for another try at the Koi in the Back Pond.  Sight fished to one for a while with no success.  Shifted to a White Grasshopper Variant and caught a couple of Bass and missed several more.  Then, switched to a Yellow Foam Beetle and had more fun catching Bass and a Bluegill.  Only six Bass and a Bluegill this round.  But, was a lot of fun catching them on surface,... even had one jump clear out of the water to take the Beetle!  Missed a lot more than were hooked and landed.

Quick Trip To Bethany This Evening

Quick trip to Bethany this evening given a late start.  Fished a Foam Beetle and caught a little Bass and a Sunfish.  Lost the Beetle to a snag... switched to a White Grasshopper Variant and caught two more Bass.  No Bruisers but was fun catching them on the surface!
