Team C.B.F Practices C.P.R. - Catch, Photograph & Release! Most of the time! This one is going to taste good! |
I was lucky enough to break away on mothers day for a few hours at one of my favorite walk in and wade areas in Baffin. (She must have really liked her present!) Look at what I was able to catch. There were so many redfish it was not funny. All of them were in the 18-21 inch range and really spooky. Except for this one which was 29 1/2 inches long, 16 5/8 girth and 8.875 pounds on certified scales. |
Yup! This is the fly that fooled the fish. I call it the Ugly Bunny. It is a deviation of the Cactus Bunny but after I tie it is ugly. It is an easy fly to tie and it works. Redfish have poor eyesight but can see contrast and movement well. In the ugly bunny I use the rabbit fur to create more movement and the different colors to create the contrast. My favorite color combination is are orange/black but with this fish lime/black is moving up quickly! |
I had fun on a day I did not think I was going to fish. Team C.B.F's scores again! I thank God for the opportunity!
Luckily, I carry my flyrod just in case something like this happens.
FISH HARD or STAY HOME with your MOMMY!
