Saturday I went fishing on Elm Fork Below Ray Roberts, Not much luck besides a few sunfish and some cats...
Sunday Dad, Sam and I went to Six-O ranch, where Sam caught his first fish ever!
a friend gave my dad this goofy little rod, It did the trick!
After that we went to the Paluxy in Glen Rose and dad caught the best fish of the day..
Yesterday I was out at the Wed Child Golf Tourny, Where I was a sponsor... Got to spend some time with the likes of Bill Bates and Timmy Newsome!
Lots of fun and a great cause...

ReplyDeleteGot a question--at what water temp do you put the surface flies away for this year. I am going Saturday and was going to use some poppers in water temps 70.
Im not sure what temp. But after misquitos are no longer a problem, gnat hatches are absent and you can't see any frogs, then is a pretty good time to start going deeper. I think below 70 and the top water bite, for bluegills atleast, starts to diminish. If your unsure, try a popper dropper rig, the fish will tell you what they like!
ReplyDeleteYou know they actually make a fly rod like that crazy little springy rod your dad is using!

Next time we're fishing somewhere remind me to bring "The Coathanger", It's a flyrod I modeled after one of those, no reel, half a line, and a sock for the grip
Beautiful sunfish... and great tasting too! =)
