Fishing Report

12.0" Smallmouth Bass caught by Fish Monger fishing on Tuesday August 05, 2008 at 17:30 in Great East Lake near Acton in York County, New Hampshire (NH), United States North America using a Beaded Little Brown Trout Fly

Haven't been fishing much the last couple of weeks. Seems like there is always a family outing to go to or some crisis around the house that needs attention.

Got to head out out after work one night last week. Total catch was 2 Togue, 2 Rainbows, and 8 short Smallies.

Featured here is one of those smallies caught on my own crafted fly.

I've had much better days there this year, but it wasn't bad.
For Lake Trout...
On hardware I have been doing well on a large copper mouselook wobbler, top guns (any color w/copper), and some on DB Smelt (pearl/orange color).
On streamer flies I have had some success using gray ghosts, red ghosts, red/gray ghosts, and trout slammers. A white perch fly has been hot, and when they are turned on to it, it is HOT.
Want to know what any of these look like? www.dumondflies.com will show you pics of these.

Sounds like you had a good day. We have a camp on the lake and I was wondering what you were using for the lake trout?

Even the small ones are fun to play with. Amazing to be able to catch anything with all the rain lately
