My usual routine this time of year is to begin chasing Steelhead and huge Browns on Lake Ontario tributaries. As much as I enjoy doing that...my real passion still remains with my warm water fish...A day like today..a little warmer, a little sun...gets my blood going for some warm water action.

Phil and I took the yaks out of winter storage and hit a local favorite hot spot lake for some bass, panfish and pickerel action...We easily hit into the 20+ fish a piece category...some beautiful fish were caught and released for sure...

I utilized one fly only today in two different colors. I was using the Strip-a-Boo Leech...I usually use this fly for smallies and carp...but in a couple of different color patterns......It worked like a charm today...I will be updating the color offerings on my website... www.rusuperfly.com

I kicked it old school rocking only a Fenwick glass rod and a Curt Gowdy Signature...both equipped with Plfueger reels...made in the USA of course. There is something magical about these rods and reels...Something special...I'll save that for another post....here's the porn...enjoy....
