Broker Posted June 10, 2012 Report Share Posted June 10, 2012 Went down to the river tonight before dark and finally got my first fish on the fly! That mooneye made my day!

The JAY Posted June 10, 2012 Report Share Posted June 10, 2012 Hey! Congrats on the moonie! They definitely puch above their weight! I got a few the other night after you left. Same idea, nothing really until almost dark, then WHAM! I'll be back that way again this week sometime, so keep an eye. I'll bring more flies... Maybe time to invest in a smoker too...

The JAY Posted June 10, 2012 Report Share Posted June 10, 2012 Not at all, he had it pretty much down, just needed to tighten up his S's and put a nice dry on. The rest he had down pat. Good on 'em. Now wait until a smallie hits his fly, he'll be a confirmed addict. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
