Thank you all for your posting opinions. I expected to get some harsh comments.....this is good so far.
Appreciate DaleW taking the time to post all his knowledge icw leaders and such. Good info for me as I just discovered PumpkinSeed sunfish. Wow do they put up a fight!
Going after some of them tomorrow morning. Not sure what flies to use.....sink or wet....what leader.....etc....
But thank you Dale for the great info.
BTW the fly that I discovered them with is the Yeagerburger. Easy to tie. Quite effective. The one I put on was just in frustration of not getting anything.....fishing for bass......and just threw on that all beat up....hackle almost gone......Yeagerburger. The sunfish loved it. I just dangled it on the surface with my rod tip up high and they would take it. Now will try to fish the traditional way.....from a distance....witih a float line and fly.....then perhaps a wet fly.......
I have now read that PumpkinSeeds are very good tasting.
oh......I am going to just tie on some mono at the end of my fly line......for the sunfishies......
