Anyway, after a quck stop at McD's for breakfast I was on my way. But on the way I realized I was almost out of gas, so then I had to go find a gas station. Finally launched by 7:30. Should have stayed in bed.
Popping Bug Fly:
Had trouble with the macro on Saturday, none of the photos of the fly came out.
Dragon Fly:
That was my choice of fly for the morning. Brought some others in case. Almost immediately I was getting little pops from various fish with mouths too small to take the fly. But at least that was something. I was casting up to the shore, trying to focus on areas that looked to have structure underneath when my fly got sucked down and fish on:
Not a great photo but a small bass was a nice surprise. Two cast later same thing but smaller. Hooked two more bass working that same shore line, and of course missed some other smaller strikes from what I believe were panfish. And finally got one of those as well:
When you are fly fishing, size of the fish seems not too matter too much.
Around nine the bite seemed to die, my arm was tired from casting so I called it a morning. But it was a fun less than two hour outing that is for sure.
