Jim Krueger Posted July 30, 2009 Report Share Posted July 30, 2009 Monday was a great evening outing. Great weather, and had the opportunity to meet other members. Steve S gave some real insights on reading the river. The smallie caught was on a two tone, yellow top/black bottom, gartside bass bug. (At least, it was my attempt of tying a gartside bass bug.) Steve put me in the right spot, instructed where to put the fly, and we watched it drift down the seam. Wham! It was a classic, instructional led smallie lesson with the fish cooperating. Lots of fun watching the carp master, and learning more about river fishing. Thanks Steve! Also, Big Thanks to John L for arranging the outing. I believe we all caught fish, not great in size, but what the heck, the rods were bent. (I must admit, at one point a the snag felt good for a brief moment!) Looking forward to Saturday's event.

John Loebach Posted July 30, 2009 Report Share Posted July 30, 2009 I agree Jim, fishing was great. Wish I saw the big carp that Spiz got. I fished with new member Steve R. & he got a decent 13"er. I saw alot of wakes in shallow lift areas as it got dark but only landed one dink. Typical of late. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
