Kayak fishin' 08 reports and pics!

[Cyberfish]

Well, we finally are starting to get some warm enough weather for some bass fishin'

Met Jim "fishface" bonin at the river and he walked off to his spot while I got my kayak ready to paddle upstream. The fish had the feed bag on for sure, sipping mayflies off the top.

I wish I would have brought some dry flies, as those fish were keyed in on the small mayflies.

I started throwing a MT jig and got a nice one pretty quickly.

Then moved up aways to where Jim was fishing. He was getting a few on his flyrod with buggers and clouser minnows.

Two others were getting em off the bank with small dry flies on top, looked fun!

I got some bass on grubs and Ring-N tubes. I had something big on for a little while, felt like a snag at first but then it started thumpin', probably a cat, or a big carp!

It sure was great to be back on the water again!

here are the pics!

rigged up and ready to go!
