Thread: One trip , two locations.

I wanted to fish the creek with a woolybooger and try to catch another shoal bass this morning.
I took my 6’6” Grimlin 2wt to fish the size 12 woolybooger.
After about twenty minutes of working the creek with the booger , my line stop while I was stripping across the creek . I thought I’d hooked something on the bottom. It just stopped . But then it started moving and the battle was one . The fish made a run down stream as I was able to get the loose line on the reel so I could use the reel’s drag to help fight what looked like a bass once I worked it back upstream and closer .
But then it took off upstream and stopped about 25’ almost straight across from me . I didn’t feel the fish anymore. He wrapped me on something underwater.
I tried giving slack , but nothing and I had to break off .
I retied and caught a nice redbreast about five minutes later .
I think on my next creek trip , I’ll take a little heavier rod to toss my woolyboogers . Would make it easier tossing the boogers too.

I packed up and drove to the local reservoir that has green sunfish and fished for an hour there with my new 6’ 2wt TFO Signature 2 rod I found a deal on I couldn’t pass up .
I’d been wanting to get the newer model to compare with my old Signature 6’ 2wt .
There is a difference. I like the 2 better . It has more flex. It’s closer to a true 2wt .m
Ended up catching 22 fish , mostly green sunfish with a couple warmouths and a few gills .
