Flytyer14 0 Report post Posted May 8, 2011 I did a little fishing yesterday at a private lake. the water was real cold but we managed to catch a bunch of bluegills and 1 bass. I caught all my gills on a popper from Jeff Price that I got a year ago in a Popper Swap that Dart held. Here's some pics. -Mark Let me know what I need to do to make these pics better.

firedad 0 Report post Posted May 8, 2011 Looks like fun. I like fishing for bass and bluegill, they put up a great fight for their size. I would like to tie up some bass flies, but haven't got any materials for them yet ie... hooks, popper bodies, ect. Maybe this summer when the temps warm up. Do you know how they tie the deer hair flies with different colors and patterns? It looks as if they paint them, but the recipes call for different colors of hair. Know of any step by steps on these?
