All fish were caught on 4lbs Sunline Troutist Darkness line, Daiwa SS Air reel, and the Daiwa Presso AGS 62ML-B Rod. I used a number of trout lures and barbless hooks only. I special order my hooks out of Japan. All fish caught and released. Too much fun!

I was always a 1-3wt guy. Then I found Tenkara. It's my preferred method for flyfishing panfish.

Fishwfly,
Your Oklahoma trip??? Those photos look like you were fishing one of those beautiful locations.
How did your fishing partners make out? What did they use?

Today's trip was fun with a few really nice Bass for the size water I was fishing. I chose to hit a small creek near me because I knew the wind was howling. I would have more fun out of the wind on light line. Took the Daiwa Presso ags 62ML-B rod paired with the Daiwa SS Air. I was using 4lbs Sunline Trout darkness line. Lure of the day was the small keitech spin jig in 1/16oz. I also caught a few on the small rebel grasshopper crankbait. I have started switching all my small crankbaits to single barbless hooks in size 6 or 8. I get them ( well, quite a bit of my specialized gear) from Finesse-fishing.com. It seems my catch rate is up on fish I hook because the single barbless hooks keep them pinned. Especially if a larger fish gets on. All in all, a fun HOT February morning.
