Took the KK VE2 w/ kestrel rod and Zephyr combo out this morning.
Pretty sure this is close to my PB, got both on a 3in slim senko on my KastKing Zephyr BFS combo
Redington euro kit, doubled up one time. Lost two bass at the bank.
In the heat of things here in PHX metropolitan, chasing panfish and bass this morning. Started with my 4wt using a popper dropper, then decided to test out my new euro setup because why not? Hooked up on a nice bluegill (last pic), ready to try it at the river!
Was chasing bass with a small powerbait craw
Have lost some okay bass right at the bank, two threw hooks and my knot slipped on the other. This guy attacked this popper though!
4 in black senko (first senko fish) and another on a bellows gill ned
2.8 Elastomer bellows on BFS KK Zephyr. Eagle claw fly rod 6 wt.
Had a catfish break me off yesterday at the bank on this setup off a panther martin streamer, my knot slipped! Got these two today on a 2.8 bellows gill on EWG ned jig
At the pond I fish I notice some large bass come up to the shore or underwater structure and seemingly just chase fish off. Im guessing they are guarding a bed or fry? What would you throw if you see this behavior? There is one in particular I cannot get to bite and he’s always hanging out in this area and will chase fish but I never see him eat them. I’ve seen a few others exhibit similar behavior but I’ve caught a couple of those. I’m in AZ if that matters. I am not getting skunked but I really want to target larger ones this summer and I’m pretty much self taught for all fishing and have tried most the go to lures and new ones, even some flies, but can’t figure this situation out!
