Wooooohoooo! Kool-Aid flies rocked

Post by reelman » Fri Jul 02, 2010 8:39 pm

Caught a 3.5# and a 4# small mouth bass. 15.5" and 16.5" long respectively. I didn't get pics, sorry.
The 4#er is officially the biggest fish I've ever caught. Thank you Kool-Aid Man.

I have some great bass fies but I am embarassed to say that I have not even used them because I can't seem to give up my comfort baits (wacky rigged Senkos) So I bet those 3-4lb bass felt great on a fly rod. Maybe I will take the plunge soon. --- Plunge on to my fly rod for bass,, Keeping with the Koolaid reference.:geek:

Well, so it is! I can ID trout with no problem, but haven't caught bass until this year. I can now check LMB off my fishing BINGO card. Cool!
Just need a muskie and I got bingo.

The one before him was 16.5". He dove to the bottom and tangled himself in the weeds. It was like pulling a submarine off the bottom. Once I broke the algae free, he came quietly because his entire head was covered in the green carpet. They were each a good 5 minute fight. Yeeeehaaaaaw.
