First Fish on the Fly in '16
Caught a few fish on this old rig. You can see a Tooty bug hanging out of his mouth. I could see them hitting the top but they wouldn't hit a floating sure. the would take this slow sinker.

Thanks for the nice comments Guys. I'm learning to catch bluegill in different ways not just warm water surface strikes. These fish were 3 to 4 feet deep and 15 feet off the bank. Letting the bug get down in the strike zone takes a while then I used a short choppy retrieve.

I love the mottled coloring of some bull gills from some waters, minus the banding patterns!
