Gavin Posted April 5, 2007 Share Posted April 5, 2007 A 6,7,8, or 9wt should work...heres a pic of my favorite pond greenie fly. The small one 2.5" works pretty well on a 6wt, the big one 3.5" takes an 8 or 9wt. Cheers. http://www.flytyingforum.com/index.php?act...ost&id=2691 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drew03cmc Posted April 11, 2007 Author Share Posted April 11, 2007 Well, I might have been convinced to try out a 7wt rod for all of my warmwater fly fishing, smallies, lmb, hybrid stripers, all of it. It can throw everything with a good WF7F line and a sink tip type II I could fish everywhere in the state for all of these species and be relatively successful! Now, what would you recommend as the necessary flies to catch bass from ponds? Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdmidwest Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 Poppers tyed with either deer hair, cork, or foam. Clouser style minnows, large nymphs, and streamers. Anything to mimic the natural forage of the bass. "Life has become immeasurably better since I have been forced to stop taking it seriously." — Hunter S.
