Norton Bay, Salmon Falls Creek Reservoir - idahopanfish - 06-28-2008

Got on the water around 7am (Big Sand Bay was too crouded for me). fished the north side around to big sand bay. Caught lots of small bass 2 perch 7" and 2 crappie 7", yes finally I found some crappie willing to play and even got them on the flyrod[cool]. Fished till noon then headed home. Beautifull day on the water[Image: happy.gif]

What flies do you use for crappie?

I was using a clouser, they like minnows so I believe something with some sparkle and movement but not to big will work great. I was also targeting walleye.

[cool]The bass tore my first clouser fly up as well. I never got a walleye on the clouser, was going to try a zonker but never did. Most of the walleye I have gotten was on a curly tail jig and I hope to tie something up like them to try for the eye's as well.

I was curious because I am going to Brownlee next week and am hoping to catch some crappie on the fly rod.

I did a google search and this seemed like a good one to give you some ideas. Also ask what jig patterns are hot right now and maybe you could tie or find a fly that is similar. Hope you are succesfull cause it should be a good tug on the rod[Wink]
