So I caught my first bass on the fly for the first time and I’m HOOKED! I’ve caught 4 so far this week. 1 at pineview (Pic 1), 1 at Grantsville (Pic 2) and 2 babies from DC (Pic 3). I’ve been catching them on a fly called a Stealth Bomber. The two babies I caught on a Royal Wulff. I was wondering what other flies can you use other than poppers and buggers that would catch bass? Also what kinds of things should I look for to find them?
P.S. I’ve already tied up some Clousers. [:)]
Right on.
I like anything with rubber legs, Gurgle bug, Purple buggers, CA leech, Haresear…and a bunch more.
Pretty broad topic and lot’s of stuff to discuss. I fish for bass quite a bit with the ol’ fly rod arsenal. Take it FWIW:
I kill them on the Gorge with White/Chartreuse Clousers and Black buggers.
I sure do miss my bass fishing sessions on the gorge [:/].
I have had a ton to of fun chasing bass with a fly rod this year. My best patterns have been a beadhead olive bugger for subsurface and a olive gartside gurgler on top.
I am a big fan of bugger’s and I have caught a bunch of different species of food fish on the olive version I the.
I’ve caught, small mouth, largemouth, bluegill, crappie, a catfish, and three different kinds of trout.
