Steady Action at Bethany with a Grasshopper!

Went to Bethany Friday evening for another round of fishing.  Slow at first but once we found the pattern, it was steady action the remainder of the time.

Algae and other "greenery" is growing, so lures and fishing flies tend to foul more.  Started out with a COAF Damsel Fly and had a few follow it but no takers.  Switched to a Foam Grasshopper and hooked up with several Bass.  Caught a few, lost a few, and then bite quit near sunset.

A "hatch" was going on, and Bass and Bluegill were feeding on the bugs.  A quick switch to a Griffith's Gnat on a Caddis Hook enabled a few more hook ups.

Fun stuff!

Griffith's Gnat on a Caddis Hook Made a Difference This Round!

Cold front came and changed the pattern slightly.  Had a couple of Bass strike at the Purple COAF Damsel Fly but messed up on the hook set; did manage to land one.  Not a Bruiser but still counts!

And then, noticed bugs flying about and ripples in the water where something was feeding on them.  Seen this happen in the past after a cold front passes and things start to warm up, a hatch occurs and then the Bass and Bluegill start feeding on them.

Good thing we had a Griffith's Gnat Variant handy.  It's the one we tied using a Caddis Hook. Made a difference this round, catching a few, missing a few, having fun with all of them!
