thanks for the input, guys. i went out with a bunch of hair wings and marabou style streamers...but, alas, i forgot my float tube (uhh...actually, i dont have one ). so i didnt get any bass. very little shore casting available at this pond.

however, i had my little 3 wt in the truck, and after tying on a bright, shiny nymph, i caught blue gill after blue gill. at least 2 dozen 'gills in the 2 hours i was there...and this was from one spot. every cast for awhile, than theyd slow down, so id change nymphs, and WHAM!! every cast til they got sick of that one. 4 nymphs (copper john style ties) caught 2 dozen gills. that had to be the most fun ive had on still water, ever.

next time, i rent a float tube and go for the bass...
