great fly weekend w/ pics

I decided not to brave the cold and wet on the boat this weekend so just decided to go through some new popper flies I got from Chas Angler. All of these fish were caught this weekend in the ponds on the golf course @ Pine Forest CC where I live in summerville. I was using my 6 wt St. Croix setup and the last couple of fish were pretty good size and gave me a great fight. Most fish were caught very close to the bank at the edge of the grass in a serious ambush… I almost dirtied my drawers on a couple of them they were so close… Never give up on a cast especially on top water. The bigger ones that I caught were on a medium to large Frog pattern that put all kinds of action on the water… All fish released healthy… the big one was a little bloody cause I had not pinched the barb down at all and had to dig it out a little bit… he swam away fine…

Ha! I was hoping you would see this thread F&G! I also bought an 8 wt. that I use more in Charleston, but this 6 wt I got from you is perfect for these nice size bass. I don’t think I told you that the first time I took the 6 wt out on the boat it got stepped and one section was broken. I sent it back to ST. Croix and they fixed it perfect and returned. Only cost me like $30 total… Yea… that last fish tested how well they fixed it that’s for sure… thanks again for the setup…
