New shinner fly

[misfish]

While out last weekend,I noticed clouds of 1/2-1 " shinners, so tied up a couple to try. Sure has heck,they were chomping on them. Could not get enough bigger fish for a feed, but yet another, tie that catches.  I even took out my ultra light that I was gifted a few years back, maybe more from Porkpie. LOL

 

Oh the sun rise was amazing this morning. Like a painting. Even the moon looked great, better the the photo anyways.

A side note,I need to get a lithium Ion battery for the new finder,as it draws more power then I thought it would from the 7.2 sealed one I have been using.  I am looking at getting one of those milwhacky converter battery attachments for my 5 hr batteries. I know they work well,as another fellow angler uses that for his set up.  Home depot did not have any when I was there yesterday. Guess it,s on line for one, if I can find it .

Nice pics for sure.  One of these days, some fishing store is going to kidnap you to make flies.

After watching a couple of the Elite series tournaments, Lake Champlain and the St. Lawrence, some of those flies on a drop shot look better than this?
