Lawn Chairs in the Boat...
#7
Amen, FG. Glass all the way. Incidently, my buddy was at Henrys the end of June. Shore fishing. Nothing much was doing with the boaters, tubers and shore people except he figured out a way. Large weighted Salmon bobber and a fly on a 6 foot leader. No weight on the leader or fly. He tipped it with a small section of worm. The pattern is a local thing given to us by an old guy that's been slaying trout at Strike with it for years. Looks like a steelhead pattern on a long shank hook with black and orange plus a flashy tinsel wrap. I think it resembles a perch minnow. We had several tied up and have been trying it in various applications. He landed 9 fish in three days including a 4 lb. Brookie, a 6lb. Cutt, and a couple of 7-8 lb. hybrids. All on his ultra-light 5 foot spinning rod near the state ramp. Go figure. He said the waves were 3 feet at times.
Kept sending me phone pics while I was at a wedding in CA. Couldn't believe the size of those fish. My best at Henrys is a 5lb. Cutt. I've never caught one of the large hybrids.
