I may need to reconsider as much as I see you out on lakes. Or shrink a little so I'm not such a large sail for the wind to catch! I've been contemplating a fishing kayak, but had to put on hold until the fall.<br />DaveAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4688115055799633461.post-79758888347813699562014-05-15T06:19:58.438-05:002014-05-15T06:19:58.438-05:00Thanks Jim.

I was using an eight weight rod with a 300 grain sinking line to get down to where the fish were at. For flies I was using either a double deciever or a Murdich Minnow pattern. The murdich minnow is a great fly for wipers , white bass and smallmouth...one of my favorites.HighPlainsFlyFisherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06687603070322008065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4688115055799633461.post-60941860159436987512014-05-14T07:15:35.591-05:002014-05-14T07:15:35.591-05:00Thanks Howard...
