smalltownfisherman 0 Report post Posted April 28, 2012 Howdy Gage, Flies in the mail tomorrow. I tied up a clouser variation that I've been catching'em on down here in TX. Size 2 34011 hooks. Fun to tie. Sorry I've been so quiet during this swap. Not usual for me to do so. Thanks for letting me join this swap. -Dave Awesome, Dave! What lakes do you fish them in, what is the water clarity there, and what is the biggest bass one you've caught on them? I hope you like questions.

What lakes do you fish them in, what is the water clarity there, and what is the biggest bass one you've caught on them? I hope you like questions. The lakes are further for me than Galveston Bay. But there are sweet bayous in my neighborhood that are brackish. I mostly catch bass in there, nothing big yet. But I do see migrations of shrimp and shad up and down the bayou in different times of the year. My most exciting moment was jumping a tarpon in those same waters a few years ago. I looked to be about a 40 pounder. Love the questions. How's the fishing in Packer Nation? My parents grew up in Appleton, so I have some familiarity with the Fox river area.

Elmerfuddwnc 0 Report post Posted May 14, 2012 Hey guys I am so sorry, I mailed my flies and then when checking back to see the due date I realized I was supposed to send 15 instead of a dozen, I have 3 sitting right here and they will go out first thing in the morning, I emailed the SM and let him know as well. Once again so sorry and I promise to do a better job of reading next time! Ben Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hey Dave, Wisconsin fishing is just warming up here. For Wisconsin, the farther north you go, the better the lakes get. Most of the southern lakes (in WI) are very weedy and are inaccessible from the shore. I like to go up by the Wausau area and just pick out a lake to go and check out. Some of the northern lakes have lost alot of water, and a few I know of have dried up so bad that the fish froze out over the winter. I'm over by the Chippewa area, west of Appleton. One of the best lakes in Chippewa is Lake Wissota. It has a great variety; Walleyes, Pike, Muskie, Smallies, and Largemouth. I'm definately looking forward to fishing with all these new bass patterns from the swap! I'll get pictures for everyone once I catch some largies, too. Go Packs, go!

What do you say guys, should I send everything out when I receive the rest of Elmerfuddwnc's flies? PM's sent. StF Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
