Bream on the Fly

Today on Lake O the Pines after the front has pass, wind out of the North.
First thing this morning at sunrise, 30 min of fishing from the shore.

For the pass 3 week the bream have been on beds, we been using our 1# Rods and it been a hoot for clients to try.

A nice bunch of bluegill and that is a beautiful longear sunfish. Congratulations.

Beautiful string of fish. Great eating.

Beautiful fish and tasty

Nice fish. Good job on the fly!

Hot on Pines: mid day.





One more time we use our slow sinking yellow spider fly in 2 to 4 feet of water on top of these bream beds we have been finding, we had to dead stick them in the beds before they would commit to them.
They are tie on a #14 cz hook with 8 raps of .020 lead wire, been working the best for us this year in and around water 2ft to 5ft.

Those are some nice doggone 'gills.

You talked me into it, just told the boy to grab his pole after school tomorrow.

I am going to be fly fishing in Hot Springs Village for perch this weekend.
After seeing your pics it is all I can do not to leave right now.
Those are really pretty fish.
Nice job.
