Fly Tying

Recommended Posts

Kayak fishing this morning to test the new fish finder. Finally broke down and replaced the old one that still used pixels with a new one with down scan imaging. Big difference! Fishing action was slow but did get into White Bass boiling on the surface a one point. Did not fly fish for them but did see one fisherman in a "poke boat" doing well catching the on the fly! Today's Video.

PS: Short video of the fish finder we used today. It is the Lowrance Hook 3x DSI. Really like the down scan imaging! Also, using the dry box to mount the fish finder and hold the battery pack and excess power/transducer line worked well today! Video clip.

Sigh, tough fishing yesterday, but I did get to use a bunch of larger nymphs and small streamers from previous swaps. About time too.

Did to see anyone fly fishing for them yesterday. But, may have been a good thing. We were finding them deeper and holding on a point. Started for Crappie but shifted to White Bass. Lots of fun! Sunday's Video.

Picked up great online deals from Cabelas... including a Switch Rod for $60. Not bad. Even "tested" it out and caught several bass! Pictures.

Switch Rod is working out well. More fish on a Near Deere and Foam Grasshopper! Pictures.

Mowed the lawn with lots of daylight to spare! So, went fishing on a quick trip... But, on the first cast, hooked my thumb... no worries, "just a flesh wound". Caught several Sunfish and a Bluegill that went for a Foam Grasshopper. Using an online tip on hook removal and with a little help, was able to remove the hook with minimal pain! Vlog #3 - Quick Trip... "Just a Flesh Wound"
