Went up to East Canyon for a couple of hours this afternoon.
Got well over 20 SMB basslings on the fly before I finally switched to a spinnerbait......which only got me follows from 6-10 inch SMB's.
Tried putting on a large purple fly and sure enough got a hook up, but lost it. That SMB had my rod going bendo! What a bummer! So before I had to go home I switched to a pure white Popper and finally got my 1st bass on a top water popper! Only a 6 incher but hey.....it was a start.
Tried a few more casts and watched as a bass replaced the location of my popper and straight into the air the duo went. Then they went under, and soon to net. Only a 10 incher but it was great way to end the day.
So all in all it was worth finally getting one on the fly...next goal.....get a tandem double on the fly rod.
