This is the 3rd Sunday in a row that Haskell Lake here in NE Oklahoma has provided me with a little ultralight fun, I caught a couple of little Bass and a couple of nice Bluegills.....(Rebel Yellow Crickhopper)
Lots of open area for a fly rod to make some real fun!
Yes, there were a few folks out there fishing but no problem for me walking the banks....
I got in my morning walk around my friend`s pond and I managed to reel a nice one in....The one that got away was a beast, true story. "Oh! Well... uh... a true story? I couldn't swear to every detail but it's certainly true that it is a story." -Ed Tom Bell (No Country For Old Men)
For the 4th Sunday morning in a row an early run to Haskell lake produced some ultralight fun.....some nice Bluegill and a Redear.
They are in full spawn mode right now and should have been shallow. Good eats right there.
I got about an hour or so in before the front edge of that storm pulled a sneak on me.....I had several bumps (dinks) and a bad hook set on a couple and lost a decent one in the weeds. I tried using soft baits for the 1st time I think since the early 80`s, the first taker was a little Crappie and then a this nice little Bass which was a lot of fun on an ultralight!
I bought a new rig yesterday, a Pflueger Trion 120 on a `5 Uglystik Lite Pro. I took it out this morning and it worked flawlessly. I caught two and lost two, one to a bad knot and another to a bad hook set. I have it strung with 6lb Trilene and I was throwing a 2.5" Mudbug with a #2 Mustad hook.
Slipped away for a little fishing this morning, considering all the recent doom and gloom it was a real beauty of a morning! Fishing was a little slow but I managed to catch a few decent Bluegills and one Redear...ultralight fun!
