"Thanks....I am still catching catfish and enjoying it...they seem to hit only when they are either on the prowl at nite or guarding the nest (the males)..but not when they are courting...what has been your experience?"

"Hey Patrick; Thanks for rating my catfish...I enjoy catching them when they are in post-spawn guarding the nest (the male) seems super aggressive....they seem to spawn several times a year...what is it like in ILL for cats on a fly?"

"yeah there are a lot of snobs in this awesome sport. i think some people get to concerned about what gear they have or how they look and loose focus on the many reasons that we fly fish."

"yeah it was on a flyrod. i had a 1x 7.5' tapered leader on with a black and red deer hair popper. the state record at the time was 8 pounds 14 ounces. the old digital berkley scale we had read somewhere around 8 pounds ten ounces. i didnt measure how long he was though. we ended up letting him go because the fish from that lake taste like shit and i just wasn't sure he would be the new record. would have been a nice mounter anyway"

"catching tarpon with a fly rod is the most incredible fishing i know... the largest fish i have ever caught with flies have been bull and lemon sharks, sometimes weighing 200lbs or more. in the keys sharks seem to be one of the easiest fish to catch with a fly rod because they are always hungry."

"i believe that carp will eat most flies if they have the chance... i don't know which carp video you commented on, but i am sure i used some nymph that looks like a mayfly, stonefly, or tiny crawdad. get the fly in their face and they will eat it! (my youtube account has a handful of carp videos, look up "mtbpt" and you can see them all.)"

"um, the best i can think of would be a hexagenia (hex) pattern, but idk if you have them in illinois...why?"

"Hi Patrick,<br>You asked me a question about mayfly patterns for smallmouth bass. I keep it pretty simple myself. The two go to patterns I use a Klinkhammer as an emerger and lately have been using a Sparkle Dun as an easy to tie dry imitation. I can send you a couple links to patterns if you are interested but both are pretty easy to find on the internet.<br><br>Good luck,<br><br>Dennis (northernfly)"

"for smallies? i would probably go with something small and dark, since they are being sluggish. somethin like a picket pin, small woolly bugger, or dark clouser. fished slow and steady"
(04/25/2010 at 02:21 PM by TroutSlayer1)

"i would say no, but see how it goes with both. i would fish them like streamers/sculpin, but not too fast "

"Hi everyone, I was seriously thinking about starting a Fishing guide service for Bureau County. I've called some places to get the information I need. I'd just like to know if anyone would be interested in this? Cause I dont wanna go thru the time and trouble of preparing papers and buying the things I need if I wont get any interested customers. Please let me know what you think and if you have any ideas. What I plan on doing (as soon as the snow is gone)is take pictures of all the area (public) Locks,Creeks and Ponds and add them to papers of info on what the stream is like,how deep, where its location is, what kinda of fish are in the area, etc. and take you wadding to the area you choose from the info papers I will make. I have flies I've made myself for sale in many different sizes,colors and styles. Days of the week, amount of hours and prices will be determined at a later time. <br> So If your an out of state/county fisherman and wanna try out Bureau County,Illinois waters please let me know."
