I hope to go this fall and try to find another passage Harris if it is safe along the border down there.Wild Edhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04616707944931436546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6395446173844714571.post-9757243769265082892010-06-23T22:35:01.636-05:002010-06-23T22:35:01.636-05:00Ed, I loved the article.

There was an article about bluegill fishing on Reelfoot Lake that was descriptive and alluring. I could smell the coolness of the clear water and see the shadows of those legendary beasts beneath the cypress trees as they inhaled the spinners the author was using. <br /><br />Good to see you are still at it, and I was wondering if you are still partnered with a hawk or have you moved on?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6395446173844714571.post-88960844558966356582010-06-15T12:33:43.600-05:002010-06-15T12:33:43.600-05:00Luciano if you go make sure it is a sunny day and ...Luciano if you go make sure it is a sunny day and it has been a while since a rain. If the water is stirred up or it is overcast they do not bite on Brushy. I have found very small chartruse poppers with rubber legs and feather tail to be the best. My favorites have a round body but I forget the names. Have a great time or even better give me some notice and I just might be able to get loose and go with you.

I did a couple of posts on getting the kids away from the computer and t.v. and into the outdoors fishing. By the way, I love to catch those gills on the fly too.<br /><br />http://btrussell-fishingthroughlife.blogspot.com/search/label/Kids%20FishingBill Trussellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15351692272817692157noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6395446173844714571.post-26851060449057903662010-06-11T23:15:30.388-05:002010-06-11T23:15:30.388-05:00Doug you are more than welcome to the memories.

I can assure you there will be kids telling the stories to their kids someday,about all those fishing trips,just as you and I tell stories about those that shared time with us in the outdoors.Wild Edhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04616707944931436546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6395446173844714571.post-63928431958811005622010-06-11T20:49:08.623-05:002010-06-11T20:49:08.623-05:00I don't fly fish - but take the kids out with ...I don't fly fish - but take the kids out with a rod a bobber and can of worms. Nothing better than catching a pan full of bluegill ( or breem as they call them here). The kids love it and it all takes me back to those lazy, summer childhood days in the creeks close to home.<br /><br />Thanks for the memories.Doughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01779996988877260226noreply@blogger.com
