does anyone on here fly fish for bass? ill be fishing for both main species lm and sm, one a river and it's backwater sloughs besides poppers, what else works for em?
brandon4455 said:that sounds fun, i know about 3-4 different backwater sloughs on the upper willamette only half of em are accessable by foot. but they hold bass up to 10lbs carp,suckers,all kinds of panfish, and perch . and for smallmouth i fish calm spots on the river in parks, ive caught those up to 6lbs
dude, they fight like no other, it took 15 mintues to get him in.. i was using a 7ft medium rod so it was kinda thin,, i thought he was gunna break me off and almost gave me a heart attack but eventually i got him in, and we had no camera so a quick release, i was like 13 lol black roostertail or a booyah spinnerbait always gets em on the willamettecolbypearson said:i need to get a 6lb smallie im dyin to get one
