Saturday was a tough day on the water. Since the lake has been down for a long time it's given enough time for the green vegetation to grow and grow everywhere... and now with the lake getting closer to summer pool it's giving the carp plenty of cover and plenty of stuff to munch on. Only had limited shots at them, but found some Gar laid up and suspended. Some of those dudes were as long as my leg, but the little guys kept getting in the way! Here's an example!
The deadly "rope fly" strikes again!
Today (Sunday) was a little better carp day, but mainly ran into laid up fish and some still spawning up in the green stuff!! You have to find pockets of mud where no weeds/grass have grown and that gives you a shot at either mudding fish or fish cruising looking for food. Found one that was hungry....
Tried some shots at fish feeding in the vegetation but would get hung up or land the fly right on top of them and they would spook out!
