Weekend Variety in Iowa (early March 2016)

[FishnDave]

Flyfished for crappies on Thursday evening:






Sunday was so nice, I decided to try sight-fishing for carp with flies...caught one!:






Saw a few nice bass. Caught one of those, too. 17.5":



Went to another pond to try for Grass Carp. Saw plenty, had zero takers. Caught some nice bluegills instead:
a chunky sow:



and a decent male:



And a jumbo 9.5" Hybrid Sunfish...all on topwater:

That's really awesome! It would be hard to improve on a day like that.

Looks like you had a great day on the water. Jim

[AllenOK]

Nice!

I need to find a place up here in MI that has hybrid sunnies. I miss fishing for those!

Caught some nice bluegills and crappies (and tiny bass) on a yellow Boa Yarn Leech last night:

Nice fish! What did the carp take on?

[FishnDave]

The carp ate a Whitlock's Near 'Nuff Crayfish... Tied without claws.

@FishnDave Thanks, will have to try tying some.
