Finally caught something on my own flys. Caught the first fish of the day on a small black spider/knat thing with a red tail. Also caught a couple fish on foam spiders I tied.
Caught 5 bream today. Not super huge but not bad either.
And caught 3 bass. The most I have ever caught. Before today I had only caught two bass my whole time fishing.
Now for the grand finale. I caught the biggest fish I have ever caught in my life. On any tackle but it was much more special to be caught on a fly rod.
Here it is. The biggest fish and bass I have ever hooked.
It weighed at right at 2lbs and was 18in long. Boy was it fun too catch. It went airborn once and took off. First fish that has put my reel and drag to good use. Super super fun. I was ecstatic once I got it to shore and saw how large it was. And what did I catch it on? You won't believe it lol. A tiny little white betts popper. Its amazing how big of fish you can catch on little flys. Had a great time and today was a day to remember. Wish us luck for mondays trip. We are hoping to try to get some trout for the first time.
