Lures Used : Flies
Fished Waterboo this morning with fellow member Chris Casner. We caught 24 bass and 4 bream all on fly rods. We had the best luck close to the creek mouth and surrounding area. Caught some on top on poppers and a little mouse fly and the rest with wooly buggers or wooly bugger knock offs. The lake is down a foot or two and there is a lot of vegetation in the lake but its absolutely still very fishable. We caught a lot of fish but they were all "unders" and even though 24 bass is a lot of fish - for Waterboo this would be an "off" day. Bass Forecast only rated today a 4.5 and Waterboo fished "fair" consistent with that rating. We ate lunch at Sweetie Pies Rib Eyes in Decatur and that made the trip a total success. A great little steak, a pork chop, some hot rolls and some ice cold iced tea will top off any fishing trip as a win.
