Visited a new-to-me spot. Hoped for Orangespotted Sunfish. It was extremely shallow and muddy along the shoreline. Caught a small bass and lost a sunfish of some sort.Moved on to one of my more frequent haunts.Caught a variety of fish, including some Largemouth Bass, a Spotted Gar, Warmouth, Shortnose Gar, Bowfin, and a tiny Silver Carp.Muskrat:

Nice job tying that Muskrat emerger pattern Dave. Should get you some REALLY big fish :slight_smile:

Ha ha! :slight_smile: Thanks for noticing the realism of my favorite terrestrial pattern. Perfect fly for when you see the appropriate hatch going off, which can occur in nearly any season.
