Growing up I distinctly remember fishing lakes with chironomids and even with my float tube tied to this individuals, using his fly's (I was like 8), down the same depth, I didn't catch as many fish. Even when I used his rod and he used mine, he'd start out-fishing me with my own rod.
I live in Minnesota and do fish lakes that have em but I almost never catch them when I'm going after musky, bass, and pike. Most of the lakes I fish aren't known as walleye lakes, they just have a few in there. Nonetheless, I've always found it weird that I don't hook into more of them by...
Thanks man.
I see you’ve also been bitten by the bass bug. I love seeing em eat poppers, it gets my blood pumping.
I’ve never fished for largies in eastern Washington. Do the lakes you fish develop a weedline?
Fished a popper for the first time of the season last night for 15 minutes and had a good eat right away but pulled it right out of it's mouth. It always takes me a few fish to get in the rhythym.
