[QUOTE="Master Carper, post: 4084071, member: 15527"] Launched my little boat @ 5:30 this morning and had it loaded back up in the truck by 10:00. I fly fished this morning with the following: TFO fly rod, 9ft. 5 wt. Clearwater #5 reel 5 wt. floating fly line 6X tapered leader / 12 ft I fished with a new fly today, one that is tied on a 2/0 EWG worm hook, and uses magnum rabbit zonker strips. I saw a picture of these flies last night, and after studying the picture for about a minute, and went to my fly tying room and tied three of them in short order. I chose to tie this fly without any type of weight, as I fished over weed beds and did not want the fly to sink too fast and stay in the strike zone longer, and it paid off. I knew the water in this lake would relatively clear, with good visibility down to a little over 4 feet, so the only fly color I took was white, and the overall fly length is 5". No big bass in this lake yet, at least none that I have caught. 19 bass the morning, plus this guy that thought he had a big appetite.
