[cool] Hey davetclown,
It sound like you guys back east are having the same luck as in CA. Whether it is Southern Cal or Central Cal I have had tremendous luck with smallies on a brown rooster tail. In the area of Bishop CA, they have many ponds in the area. They all have their share of smallies, blue gill, LMB, Channel Cats as well as blue cats. The smallies and blue gill alike really dig on the brown rooster tail. I have also been using a catyst nymph dry fly with a small piece of worm enhancement.
