Hit a creek for a few hours this morning with my flyrod in search of smallies. It took me a while to weed through the rock bass, warmouth and gills to finally connect with my target quarry. Ended up with a few typical creek smallies like the one pictured and capped the trip off with a little better one.
Fish were caught on hoppers, black woolly boogers and the smallies were caught on a clouser crayfish.
These were incredibly pesky today especially with the woolly bugger
I enjoy catching these as much as smallies and lost a nice one that was completely black when it came from under a rock to eat the crayfish pattern
Typical for where I was at but fun on a 5wt
Icing on the cake since I had already caught a few. After this fish I just packed up and left. Called it a success and grabbed a bite to eat.
