Thanks Greg. Will be having fun with these during the winter season with the family. The holdovers will be a lot smarter. These put up a heck of a fight. I had to keep a few due to deep gutting since the flies were too small. I will be using size #6 and #8 for my flies. #10 and #12 are way too small.

Dick, no kidding. Lost two of the tubifex bevause of the 2lbs test. Didnt know I was battling brownies instead of crappie and gills. I will bring a spare spool of 6lbs for leader next time.

Jeffrey, major bloopers. Lost 4 because their teeth were stinging my fingers in fridgid water. They were as bad as catfish during the struggles.

Rex, these are the stupid ones because they were stocked brownies. They will be much smarter for holdovers.

Tooty, the glass was awesome. Was able to put a nice 35ft accurate shot right in the drop zones I wanted while on the float tube

Glad to know "smart" fish can't resist that fly,  just like bluegills.  Looks like a good day for you.
