Hey Guys
Just getting ready to fish some local waters that don't see many fisherman. Not exactly sure what I will find in them but am hoping for the best. I suspect water will be rather shallow with a hole to fish here and there. Also when prospect ing I noticed alot of lilly pads and under water grasses. Just wondering what kind of fly you use to start out with, example: a #18 BHPT, a #14 ant, or a #10 Wooley Bugger keep in mind most of the fish will probally be 4 to 9 inches but there may be some undercuts or deep holes along the way. All of these sections are between 5 and 20 ft wide I assume you wade only when necessary if at all is that correct?
Also I expect to hit some real flat calm waters what is the best way to try to fish those or just skip over them out right?
I'm just trying to make sure my fly box is full of the most important flies for these excursions. Any tips to keep in mind would be appreciate. Or an experienced buskwacker looking for an adventure could gladly join me!
Thanks in advance if you don't wanna share your secrets please PM me.
Ok so much of this was covered in the thread Wild Trout my fault no one needs to repeat themselves but I would still like more info on fly selection and approaching slow sections with weeds/ lilly pads if possible.
