when i go fishing i usually do not have a set fish specie i fish for but i know when the bass fishing is slow 9 out 10 times you can get the panfish to bite. well i had a container of worms with me and having a good ol' time but i was getting tired of putting a worm on every few cast. i wear a fishing vest just like flyfishers (it is a little easier to carry gear when kayaking fishing), in my vest i carry a small travel pack. in this travel pack it has a little bit of everything it is a little easier than digging through the tackle box, which i still carry with me. well in there I keep some wet and dry flies why i do not really know i do not fly fish. anyways i tied a fly on my ultra light rod, the colors were black and white, and i put a very small split shot on the line about 14 inches up from the fly just to get it out there a little ways. as soon as that fly hit the water i have never seen so many panfish come out at once. right away i hooked into a pretty good size bluegill. i get that one in and throw the fly again instantly fish on this time a little sunfish. i did this five or six times until they caught on. so after the tenth cast with nothing i decided to try a couple of flicks where the fly just skims the water well i did three small little flicks out and sure enough the panfish fish came back like an angry swarm of bees. it was so much fun i have never seen anything like that. using flies i found was a good alternative to using worms. i have 4 pound line on my ultra light that is about all you really need as far as i am concered. it was a good time and if you are looking for some good fun give it a try.
