Catching fish on a Ultra Light. It don't get any better!   I love using my ultra (micro-light really) light set up to fish with...I was trying to catch some crappie one time at the base of the Lewisville dam and I hooked into a 26" hybrid...6# test line...that was fun! I'll try to find the pic and post it when I get to work... I have a Fenwick HMG, 5'6" UL rod with a BPS extreme UL reel with 4# and 6# test line...my FAVOURITE setup to fish with... I had 2# test braid on it, but that proved to be more trouble than it was worth... Tight lines...
Fly tier (yeah, I can fly fish...but the fish don't like frothy water!)

Thanks "Gitter","Dr. Crappie", and "HTC" for the replies.  "Gitter": You got that right "Creek fishing at it's best".  "Dr. Crappie": Nothing beats the feeling of a nice Sunfish at the end of an Ultra Light. A Crappie thump would also be hard to beat. "HTC": Fresh Bluegill or Crappie at dinner time. It just don't get any better!

Thanks Chuck. What about the Rios on the creeks? Have you got your first Creek Rio yet? Also looks like we may just get a little RAIN today.

Still looking for that first Creek Rio of the year.  I have gotten em off the Comal River and Lake Dunlap but not on the creeks.  This latest cold snap is going to put em in hiding for a little longer.  Side Note: Did not get much rain at all this last go around.

The Rio run will start very soon. Baring any major cold fronts I would say the creek Rios should be on the move by early May.  I would also say the same for the lakes.  After these last two fronts the Rios have flat disappeared on the Comal and the river lakes.
