Haven't posted much as I have been out fishing...about every day for the last 2 weeks...didn't bother with pictures as fishing time has been limited this year and frankly, unless it's a beast...I don't want to be bothered with it.

Anyhow, the Smallmouth are about to peak in their fly crushing ability!

I've been using Chart Gurgle Pops tied on #4 Gami Bass Stingers and well...let me say, all the skin is worn to shreds on my left (fish gripping) thumb.

This has become the time of year where finesse takes a break, cast it out and spit, sputter and pop it out...crashing, crushing blows result.

Maybe some pics tommorrow as I'll have a whole day out but again, if you are near 'em ...GET OUT ASAP.
