Bass fishing on a fly rod?

Bass fishing with Fly rod
Bass fishing on a fly rod? I understand a 6 wt. line would be best, but the type/brand best suited for smallmouth bass and bream fishing? I am also looking for some solid advice on how to rig up a fly rod. Finally, should I fish near the top of the water or go deeper? Because when you think of fly fishing, I always assume that keeping the lure or fly on the top. Also, a bit confusing for me to understand the difference between dry flies and wet, but then again I am a new fly fisherman. ;-)
Thanks for your help Arky Angler.

Smallmouth bass on the Fly

Thursday, June 24th, 2010

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

Muskamoot bay smallmouth bass

Wednesday, May 5th, 2010
smallies
Hey, all There were 20mph winds on Muskamoot Bay off  (flats area) to do a little smallmouth fishing before the rains. Fishing in 2′ of water with the only rod i have thatll punch through the wind, my 8wt with a lamson konic reel. I never fish a dropper system but i tried it today figuring i could increase my catch ratio with bass and bluegill. I used a home tied sculpin pattern with a small size 8 chart green wooly bugger. In an hour and a half i was able to get 6 smallies and 1 largemouth. Not a great day but not a bad day either. No pike, no carp. Surprisingly, half the fish came on the green bugger? I had to use a sink tip line just to keep it off the 1′ chop just so i could feel any strikes. And even that was difficult losing alot of fish
