Smallmouth bass on the Fly I was at a local lake for a guided Hybrid trip and when we got back to the dock I got my 2/3wt out of the truck and explored the back of a little cove just down form the ramp. I was expecting some bluegills and LM Bass. I ended up catching about a dozen Smallmouth bass. Nothing big but these things were frisky little guys. I dropped this one 2 times while trying to get a picture.
Many times while bringing in small sunfish came up from behind a dropoff and hammer the little guys. I didn’t have anything in my box that would get down to them. I think I had as much fun on my own as I did with the guide…lol
What do you think? The spoon fly is a great fly rod lure for redfish and I’ve heard Pike are pretty gullible for a spoon, so I thought I’d tie up some spoon flies for a friend in Canada that fishes for Pike. They are tied on a Mustad 34011 size #3/0. Not sure if it is to hot to fish for pike in shallow water; this is a shallow running spoon with not much weight is pretty weedless so I hope he gets a chance to use them. I think they should be large enough they have a pretty good presence and action in the water so I think they should still attract decent sized fish.

Thought I’d post on this blog because from time to time I get to Arkansas to do a little trout fishing. I figured I’d share my last two weekends of lake trout fishing.
last Saturday I fished it for the first time two weekends ago and again had some great lake trout fishing as well as Pike. Pretty much stuck with two flies that I slow trolled off the edges of weed beds and reefs; deer hair gomphus bugs and bottom walkers. The lake trout were not big with the biggest being around 19″s. They do get a lot bigger in this lake.
They do give you a heck of a fight in the cold water and they love to do their alligator rolls.
Lot’s of wildlife abundant in the area with elk everywhere
Saw my first Marmot.
And got a chuckle from these little fox pups we stumbled upon.
All in all a great fly fishing trip and memories for a life time.
