Boy, some fellers are sharp as tacks!

Here is the introduction to the forum:


Panfish, Bream, Brim.... However you spell it, welcome to our new Panfish Fishing forum, Sunfish, Bluegill and so on....

Now let's go visit the Wikepdeia... the free encyclopedia:

Here we have the Largemouth Bass:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Largemouth_bass

Once we get there let's see what their Scientific Classification is:

Click on ORDER. They are Perciformes. That means Pearch-Like.
Now click on FAMILY. They are from the Centrarchidae family. These are sunfishes.
Now click on GENUS. They are listed as Micropterus. This is a genus of freshwater fish in the sunfish family of order Perciformes. Can you believe these are Black Bass?


Now since the introduction says SUNFISH in it I figured this was the appropiate place to post what I did.


chaunc,
Can you please come up with a classification of the Greenfish(Green Fish) Order? Please don't add your home made classification either. Oh and I bet I could wear the Bluegills out on an adult Damselfly on a fly rod. I make some inch long Adult Damselflies that are killer on Bream. Damselflies are in the same classification order as the Dragonflies...... that would be the Order: Odonata.
Any more comments and questions on posting on this forum?


dixieangler,
Surface all of the way!

I use flat foam(any color) cut in 1/8th inch wide strip.
For the wings I use clear packing foam sheets cut in the shape of wings.
If I could find my software to my camera I would post pics. It's a real simple tie and the fish love it. I used some really nice Dragonfly flies when I first started fishing with Dragons, but the cost of making them wasn't worth it. You get some really vicious strikes. I loose quite a few dragons each time I fish them since the hits are out of this world.
When the Bass are hitting Dragons they will actually chase Dragons around the pond and nail them in mid air. Pretty wild action and I love it!
