Wow Chris.  That's sounds like a nice fish.  Gills like that on a 3wt are awesome.  I have a 4wt and love it.  I caught some decent ones this weekend myself - no 12s though.  What cha catching them with if you don't mind tellin?  You can send me a message if you don't want to tell the world.

This past weekend I got into some really nice 'gills in East Texas.  Caught my personal best - a 12" coppernose along with a dozen or more 10-11"ers on a 3wt rod.  I also lost one that broke me off and it was the biggest 'gill I've ever seen.

Got into rock bass on Sunday and yesterday afternoon I caught 12 crappie in 30 min. standing on South bridge Lake Sahoma, Ok.

Anybody starting to get into em?  I went to the lake yesterday and caught some pretty nice ones on the 4wt.  Curious how everyone else is doing.  Weather is getting better every day here in the South.

Responding to gillbum... Texas has its problems - but you can fish all year and that's great. It has been quiet on this forum though...

I'm planning on a trip down to East Texas next week to a place that has 3 pound gills caught regularly.  I'm so excited I can't sit still.  Been tying up bass and bream flies for weeks to prepare.  I hope to have some good pics and news when I return.

I'm patiently waiting for the ice to go off my favorite lake so I can limber up the long rod and my casting arm this season.  I'm kind of surprised that with 177 members in the fly fishing forum no posts have been made since March 11.  Thought I'd just type something to see if any of the fly fishers on this site are awake yet. I'm about two weeks away from ice out here in upstate NY.

I usually tie a bugger in size 8-12. We have also had good luck with white ones, but usually in the spring.

No, nothing recent.   The last time I was out with my flyrod was mid October. Water temp was around 70 or so.  Was finding them in about 3-4 feet just off the beds from earlier this spring.

Scott - what are your water temperatures now in Southern Illinois? How small do you go on the buggers? I'm assuming you caught some recently...
