Hi Jeff:

No, I was in my float tube, although occasionally I do some wading there. I go to LP mainly to fly fish for the carp. I'm on a quest to try and break the IGFA Fly Fishing World record for carp, and I've come pretty close at LP (26.5 lbs is my biggest there). The 6 lb tippet class world record is currently 28-10. I've certainly seen quite a few over 30 lbs. smimming around there in the east end.


How's the Bluegill fishing been there lately?

Nice one Bob! Hey are you wading there at LP? (what we locals call Lake Perris... Ha!)

That's a very high quality image, Bob. Thanks for posting it!

That Blugill was 11 inches. The fly is a purple stillwater nymph (a Denny Richards pattern) The fish probably mistook it for a dragon fly nymph.
