Cy Miller Park Pond... Lots of Moss!

Fished Cy Miller Park Pond in College Station this afternoon. Been here before and did well. This round was tough; lots of moss to tangle fishing flies. Managed to catch three Bluegill though!  All went for a COAF Guadalupana!

More Fun Fishing With a Foam Damsel Fly... 13 Bass This Time!

Made it to Bethany for more fun fishing with a Foam Damsel Fly. Fished the Main Pond and caught several Bass, then decided to work the Lower Pond.  Ended up catching 13 Bass and several Bluegill.  No Bruisers but the largest Bass did go 14" in size.  Lots of fun, especially liking the top water action with the Foam Damsel Fly!

More Fun Catching Them With a Foam Damsel Fly!

Cooler temps today; luckily, the Bass and Bluegill were still going for the Foam Damsel Fly. Enjoyed some top water action this evening! Not sure what tomorrow brings but suspect the pattern will change with the cold temps.  Frost warning in May? Go figure!

Foam Damsel Fly Worked Well - 18 Bass and 10 Bluegill!

Fished Bethany this evening with the Four Weight Fly Rod and a Foam Damsel Fly.  The one we used the other day lost its tail after catching two Bass.  This round made more than one in case it happened again. Luckily it did not; the little fishing fly took a beating but held up even after catching (and releasing) 18 Bass and 10 Bluegill!

Lotta fun; really liking this pattern.  Simple to tie; minimal material.  Only big expense was buying the Foam Cutter.  Bought it on a whim when we ordered the Beavertail Foam Cutter since the $5.00 shipping cost was the same for one or two cutters.

Stay tuned, plan to post an article on the fishing fly pattern... gonna call it the "Fly Tying - Simple Foam Damsel Fly"!

Kroger Park Then Bethany This Round

Fished Kroger Park (officially Bethany Ridge Park) pond and caught a Bass on a Beavertail Grasshopper.  Then, went across the street and fished Bethany Lakes and caught several more Bass, using a Foam Damsel Fly and a Foam Grasshopper.

Had ordered some Foam Cutters to make a variant of the Foam Grasshopper that we tie.  It's a Beavertail Foam Cutter that is used to make a Chernobyl Ant.  Used it to make a Beavertail Grasshopper.

Also, ordered a Damsel Fly Foam Cutter; used it to make a Foam Damsel Fly the mimics the Dragonflies that the Bass were feeding on.  Too bad it only lasted two fish before the tail was torn off!

Liking the Foam Cutters and especially liking the Foam Damsel Fly.... very easy to tie using a minimum of material!

Check out today's video.  Action was slower compared to yesterday but regardless, had a fun time and was able to "test" a promising new fly pattern!

Murphy City Hall Pond for Bass!

Had fun fishing Murphy City Hall pond for Bass this morning. Caught five Bass and a Bluegill. Largest Bass went 15" and 14".  Did get a cool action shot of a Bass chasing another little Bass while fighting one on the line!  Cool stuff... never had that happen before.  Even saw the little Bass jump out of the water to get away!  All went for a Foam Grasshopper!

Another Round at Bethany This Evening

Another round at Bethany this evening.  Action was not as good as yesterday but it stayed steady. Caught Bass using the new - Redington Pursuit 4WT 8'.  Rod feels good; too bad the hook sets were not in time.  Missed a number of Bass.  Started fishing a Foam Grasshopper in Size 8.  Caught a couple; missed more than a couple.  Switched to a Size 12 and was hooking them but kept losing the bigger ones when they threw the hook.  Settled on a Size 10 and had more caught then missed with it.  Liking the new fly rod; still liking the top water action on the Grasshoppers!
