Tried a different section of the same creek yesterday, with the micro fly stuff again. Caught 29 fish. Striped Shiners, Creek Chubs, Bluntnose Minnows, Bleeding Shiners, Northern Studfish, Longear Sunfish, Bluegills, and a Green Sunfish. Had one or two Darters hooked and out of the water, but they shook off back into the water. Same with about 4 Topminnows of some sort. Bummer, would have like to have landed those!
The Bluntnose Minnow was a new species on fly for me.Bleeding Shiners:
