No harm, no foul.

No troll here. Our strip pits are so full of Gills that there is little to no chance of hurting the gill population. Think of the feeding of the roe the rest of the fish had. And I only waited to...

A couple of Sundays ago I got on a bed. I caught 12 nice gills, nearly on consecutive casts in a space no bigger than a half sheet of plywood.

I am planning to broil my next mess of gills. I love catfish broiled with salt and pepper, then sprinkled with hot sauce, so I thought I wouls try the gills that way too.

Winter has struck here again too. Hopefully this is its last hoorah.

Byron, who feasted on fresh bluegills this evening:D

Skipped out of work a little early since I worked a few hours on Sunday. I caught 14 gils and one tiny bass. All but one of the gils were decent size. One of them was very nice. My first catch on my...

I have it on a constant loop, it's playing now!

Byron:D

Nothing worse than more snow when you have cabin fever. My condolences.
All we are suffering from is the cold. That by itself is bad enough. Snow would just about send me over the edge!

Here's a couple of pics of mine. I see now that your boat is likely wider. I've had mine on the water just once, last wednesday. My first boat with a foot controlled motor. It great in that I can run...

That looks like my boat. Is that a Lowe 1440 Rover Jon?

Byron

I went out Wednseday and all I got was cold! At least I got my new boat wet and some practice with my new Sage outfit.

Byron

Thanks guys for all the great advice. I think I should indeed just learn to tie the knots instead of finding ways around them.

Byron

Thanks for the reply. I should fess up that I am tortured by trying to tie the bloodknot. I just successfully tied one, or at least I hope it was a success. I'm sure there's got to be an easy way to...

Does anyone do this? I know the leaders are more expensive but it just seems like the tippet isn't necessary. Anyone?

Byron

Okay, I'm sold. If I can get away I'm going to head out and try my luck from the bank after work. I haven't fly fished in 16 years, a little practice is in order!

Byron

If I've mentioned this before forgive me please. I have just bought a new Jon Boat and am in the process of getting it set up just like I want, or at least think I want it to be.
Anyway, I am dying...

That's what I'm talking about! Never knowing what's on the other end of the line is a good thing! Unless it's a water moccasin. I had them try to get in the boat with me a couple of times before and...

Small world, huh? What's his name?

Byron

Thanks for the quick replies. I guess I'm not the only one itching to get on the water. To make matters worse for me I just bought a Sage outfit, a 9ft in a 6wt. I decided that I just had to tie my...

How often does anyone catch a large bass, say 3lbs or more on a panfish size fly? I'm just curious as I just starting on my fly fishing journey and don't know what to expect.
I myself don't see any...

Nice looking gills. I am jealous!
