Cameron Park 4/22

[Scott V]

Cameron Park is slowly starting to turn on for top water. I went out last night after work to get in a couple hours of fishing. I started out subsurface for a couple of nice little bass and then at 6:30 decided to throw my foam Orange Crush that is a killer on bluegills out there. At first I had some small ones coming up and kissing the fly but not taking it. then I got to one of my favorite spots "Phil knows the spot well" and on the first cast to the area a nice gill hit the fly at the same time it hit the water. I then proceded to get a scouple small bass under 12" on my little foam fly as well. There is nothing better than bluegills on top on a 3 weight. It will only get better from here.

Nice little outing Scott, I trust you wore your waders this time?!?!:-k
I've been waiting for someone to post about taking advantage of the local ponds with this beautiful weather the last 5 days(+/-).:cool:
The "favorite spot" is awesome, should be designated "fish in a barrel"; and those gills are mostly real nice sized hellions.:unibrow:

If it is 100 degrees out I will be wearing my waders at Cameron Park. I plan on getting hip waders for when it turns real warm and I use my pontoon.

Scott, I kept it to myself because, well, it was a lousy day. But I took my kayak up to Cameron Park weekend before last and got completely skunked. Glad to hear you had some fun up there, and thanks for the report.

I guess one would have to experience this to know it to be true....

I'm pretty stuck on top-water stripes on the 8 wt.... :unibrow:

LOL.

Beautiful gill...
