2026 Flyfishing Fish Pics

[FishnDave]

First outing of the year for me.  I was flyfishing for anything... hoping for Hybrid Striped Bass, White Bass, Yellow Bass, Crappies... Flathead... anything.  I tried Clousers a few times, no takers.  I switched to a microjig.  I ended up foul-hooking a number of fish, but did lip/mouth hook multiple Common Carp, one Silver Carp, and one Bigmouth Buffalo.  Foul-hooked others of those, and also a couple Bighead Carp. Y'know.... the mottling on the Bighead Carps is kinda pretty.

I think those are butt ugly 🤣 but fun hearing your drag sing is beautiful.

I agree with Marty. 
 

But sometimes the fat ugly ones are the most fun.

It was raining all day.  So the fish carcasses and bird-poop covered rocks really blossomed with renewed Spring-like freshness. 🤢
