Went for another flick this AM at West Lakes.Last night I made a barbie pink headed rubber band fly,to replace one I lost Saturday to a snag(and crappy line I was using) .But I used wider rubber bands resulting in a fly with an Extra large head.And I decided to leave my long rod at home and use my old short rod !!
First cast I thought its not sinking .Second cast I will change this baby.
Wham bam fish attack sadly it was so quick I missed it .
Few more casts in that spot and I worked out this fly was actually a semi popper and took a very long while to sink.
Moved spot and once it sank bam I am on and this fish felt no to bad but it spat the fly.
And that was it I walked around most of the northern end of the lake for no more hits.Plenty of follows .Now towards the end of last year I was given a bag of rather fat and very large rubber bands.stay tuned for a popper fly made from rubber bands
.And everyone have a Great Australia Day(another reason to come home so many people bait fishing) .
