Quillback Posted April 17, 2023 Posted April 17, 2023 Exchanged some texts with Richard Cross about going gill fishing. I'm ready to catch a few. Ham, Johnsfolly and grizwilson 3
Ham Posted April 28, 2023 Author Posted April 28, 2023 28) Zebra Tilapia A digital friend shared this location with me, but little details about how to catch em. Dave and I had to work that out. They run your stuff really hard, but often refuse to eat it. We needed to keep switching flies and find a fish here and a fish there that would eat. The first one I hooked straightened the hook on a bluegill fly I tied. I wrapped sheep wool around a hook to make a slow sinking, maggot looking fly. It gotten eaten immediately, but was useless against that tank. You’d better not have your line wrapped around your rod tip or you are going to have a broken rod. They were a lot of fun to catch.

Ham Posted April 29, 2023 Author Posted April 29, 2023 29) Coppernose Bluegill I find the Coppernose Bluegill really interesting. It took a little bit for me to get any of the larger ones on fly. Sadly, my largest one came on bread while trying for Midas Cichlid. grizwilson, Daryk Campbell Sr, FishnDave and 2 others 5 Every Saint has a past, every Sinner has a future.

Ham Posted April 29, 2023 Author Posted April 29, 2023 30) Mayan Cichlid My Lifer and FlyFer all in one. The fish kill knocked their numbers down enough that I don’t hate them at all. These fish are Big Fun to pull on. I got to sight fish some too bfishn, FishnDave and Daryk Campbell Sr 3 Every Saint has a past, every Sinner has a future. On Instagram @hamneedstofish

I was pretty confident we would both get plenty and I was correct. FishnDave 1 Every Saint has a past, every Sinner has a future. On Instagram @hamneedstofish
