Again I went out after having an early supper.  My super wife has been accommodating me that way, she knows that it is better for me to be out fishing rather than to be sitting in front of the “Boob Tube”.  Not that there’s anything wrong with watching TV but when there’s good fishing to be had…let’s go fishing.

The results have been about the same as that evening on the 28th.  Some nice bass and some nice bluegills.  I did try the trick worm but got nothing.  You’ve heard of “match the hatch” well,  yesterday evening I saw fish that were working the surface away from the shoreline and it dawned on me that these are the offspring of the bass and bluegill that the bass are after and probably the bigger bluegill are foraging the fry as well.

So, this evening I’ll reset my five fly rods with minnow imitating flies and poppers. I’ll leave the trick worm home and concentrate on the fly fishing with one exception, a light weight spinning rod set up with a floating mini Rapala.  I’ll also set up one of my fly rods with a “Swimmin Minnow” , the one I had so much luck with last year, (read through my files), it can be deadly on a fly  rod.  It’s good on a light spinning rod too but, I don’t like the splash that the float makes when using the minnow that way.  Well, I’m on my way to set up my rods now, I’ll let you know.
