...nothing like an AM quickie at a secret spot to get the week started off on the right foot. Went down to a local stretch of H2O thinking I might have a go with Mr. Carp...brought my 4 weight. I was using an olive Fox Poopah, size 16 and had about 5 taps and 1 take...it didn't last long I'll catch one eventually. Walked up stream about 1/2 mile to a flood control barrier thinking I might find some bass...Tied on an emerger pattern. First cast...BAM! It was a fight to the finish for my first ever bass on a fly After a 15 second fight I landed...drum roll please...a 4 inch smallmouth Hey, you take you victories when you can. I proceeded to land 6 more of the little beasts! I was exhausted! Enjoy the week. Thom
