Day of the Warmouth
It was another beautiful morning this morning. The temp was 64 degrees when I left the house around nine but warmed up quickly .
I took a 6’3” 1-2wt fiberglass flyrod this morning to chase green sunfish.
But the catch(es) of the day were warmouths. Five out of the fourteen fish I caught this morning were warmouths . Three were nice ones .
I’ve been catching more warmouths lately , I’m not sure why . They’re just showing up in the areas where I’ve been targeting the greenies .

They don't know they are not monsters

The ones I’ve caught most certainly acted like monsters. :Rofl

Boy, those are some really nice size Warmouth, bet they were fun on the flyrod.

Beautiful pictures, thanks for sharing

Ahh, yes .... ye 'ole Warmouth !! Bane of many a Bass angler flipping a jig/trailer in the Spring. I've personally launched a few of them out of the water and completely over to the other side of the boat with my "big Bass hookset". :Rofl
Actually caught a couple really nice ones one day at a local lake, running a Wee R crankbait parallel down a rock slide bank. Best I remember they were in the same size range as the one in the next to last of gillchaser999's pics. Gave both of them a pat on the head, thanked them for the pullage, & sent them back to keep on doing what they do.
Greenies, on the other hand, are quite simple for my partner & I to catch ... by simply getting a jig or Road Runner within a foot of the rocky shorelines, on another lake we frequent.

Some real nice ones, gill! Thanks for the post.

Those are some good ones. I like catching them and used to fish a logging canal that was loaded with em. More recently, I’ve had a few days where it seemed that everything I caught of size on certain days were Warmouth. Not complaining but I never figured out why they were there on those days and go weeks without showing their face.

looks nice, I used to fry them up when I was a kid

some good ones there , we see larger ones in the spring and fall , they go lost somewhere the rest of the year here.
love the way they bite for sure , just hammer the bait every time ....
