After kicking my cold I have resumed the torment of my local bass population.
I fished my pond earlier tonight. I caught a bunch of bass AND bluegill. I caught more large bluegill on poppers tonight than I have in a long time. I had to tie up some more foam poppers and restocked my fly box after using up all of my previous poppers.
Here are some pictures from tonight.

The sunset over the pond and my neighbors.

One of the nicer bass tonight.

One of the larger bluegill caught tonight.
I love the surprise of landing large bluegill like this, especially after it crashes onto my popper.
The bluegill and bass would grab my popper before I stripped in any line. As soon as the pooper hit the water I would have a fish, very fun. Gregg had a similar experience about two months ago. He caught nine gluegill on nine consecutive casts without stripping in the popper. He relly enjoyed himself, as did I tonight.
The summer is a great time for warm water fly fishing.
Enjoy yourselves!
