Rainy Day But The Bite Was Good!

Been raining today but saw a break in the weather this afternoon. Tied a fishing fly that we noticed on the Internet.  Was looking for something that imitated the 2" Bait Fish that the Bass are feeding on.  It's a Streamer Variant that we modified using material on hand.

Caught six Bass; lost four others.  These were bigger than the ones we normally have been catching!  Largest one went 18.5".  Weighed 3.5 pounds using the scale that another fisherman let us use!

Really liking this pattern, may need to tie more than one... just in case another "Tree Fish" takes it away.

More Fun on the Fly at Bethany Lakes

Decided to give Bethany Lakes a try this morning.  With the recent rains, water level is up!  Took a Four Weight Fly Rod and Streamer Variants and worked the Main Pond, Lower Pond, and the Canal.  Struck out in the Lower Pond.  Did get three Bass in the Main Pond.  And, hooked a nice Catfish in the Canal that put a good strain on the Fly Rod.  But, it threw the hook so was not able to get a good picture of it.  Luckily, was able to get video before losing it!  Fun stuff!

Fishing on the Fly at Celebration

Checked out the North Pond at Celebration Park yesterday.  Noticed a lot of fish activity the day before, so decided to try a Streamer and a Dry Fly.  Caught a few Sunfish and Bluegill on the Streamer; caught more on the Dry Fly!  Lost count but would say 30+ were caught and released.  No Bruisers but still a lot of fun!

Fly Fished Bethany This Round

Fished Bethany this evening using Fly Fishing Gear and a Streamer Variant.  Caught several Bass, little Sunfish, and a Bluegill.  Water level is low.  Also, found out that Lake Lavon has only one public boat ramp open - Little Ridge Park.  Looks like kayak fishing and trot lining are on hold for now.  Hope rain comes soon!
