Two Fly Guys
June 21, 2023
A change of pace today as I had 2 fly fishermen out in search of smallmouth bass. Young Dave and old Dave, as he referred to himself, were hoping to get into some bass and I was looking forward to making it happen! The weather looked perfect for what they were about to do and we headed to our first spot to give it a try.
It didn’t take long before young Dave was tight to a nice fish and it wouldn’t bee the last. On the first spot alone, he made it into the double digits. Dave number two was catching as well but not as many before we moved to another location. I only hoped that it would be as good as this one!
We covered a decent amount of water before we finally found a place worth fishing. It was here that they both managed to get into some larger bass. We stuck it out for a while and the fishing was definitely worth staying! Another high numbers area and some bonus big bass were caught & released on the fly!
Several moves after and later in the afternoon, I managed to get them on another area that was loaded too. What I didn’t realize was that this would be where we would end the day. They landed so many bass from this one little spot that we never needed to move again. Young Dave was just pounding on the fish and Dave number two was holding his own as well. By the time 4:00 was upon us, we were ready to go.
We will be back out again tomorrow for hopefully another great day of fishing. With 4 days booked, I will need to move around plenty to ensure their fishing success. Who knows, I may even take a road trip to another pond. One thing for sure, there will be lots more bass landed in the coming days!
