Fished the local pond the other day using the little 2wt Cabelas Fiberglass CGR Fly Rod. Paired well with the 2/3 Wt Echo Ion Fly Reel. I am fishing a Caddis Foam Grasshopper and working the pond by casting to spawning Bluegill on their nests. Polarized glasses make a difference in finding them. Posted a livestream of the trip.

Two back to back trips to the local pond using the little 2wt Cabelas Fiberglass CGR Fly Rod. Works well with the 2/3 Wt Echo Ion Fly Reel.

Run to the coast for some saltwater fishing in Rockport, Texas.... specifically, Salt Lake near Copano Bay on a private dock catching whatever bites!

Fishing with a Zebco Slingshot Spinning Rod and Reel combo that we bought for $9.99 at Wal-Mart. Caught a number of fish. Combo handled a few five pound fish without issue but this one was to big for it... Or, at least too big for the 10 lbs mono to hold it. Check out the video snippet, looked like a Big Black Drum!

Quick tie fly tying demo of Wapsi's Foam Spider Kit. Easy pattern, tied in minutes, and fished soon after tying it. Caught four fish, lost what could have been number five... also, lost the fishing fly. Luckily, tied another one after the trip!

Tried a new place over the Memorial Day Weekend. Kayaking instead of fly fishing. Was a hot day.

First time kayak fishing Canyon Lake. Water was crystal clear and weather was sunny and hot. Only caught two little fish but did get a good workout in!

Did see some Baby Buzzards feeding on a dead carp. May have been a sign to try fishing another time.

LOL!

Fished with the Bait Finesse System Gear - Kastking Zephyr BFS Reel with Clicker and Bass Pro Shops Microlite Fiberglass Rod.

Tied on the antique Rapala Floating Minnow for a follow-on round to confirm an earlier fishing trip was not a fluke.

Confirmed... Bass still like the Rapala Floating Minnow!

Headed to the local lake for kayak fishing Saturday morning. Heat Advisory in effect, so we were not sure if the fish would be biting.

Plan was to either bottom bounce a slab and jig rig or troll it for whatever bites. Else, would get a workout in paddling to and from the boat ramp.

Managed two White Bass - one on a yellow Slab and one on a Crappie Jig. Also, had a little Channel Catfish strike a Crappie Jig bottom bounced.

Not sure how we plan to cook the two White Bass, but will post a video. Do check back!

Have you tried peanut oil instead of vegetable oil? I fry all my fish in peanut oil and it gives a sweeter taste to me.
