Went to my wife's family home in southern IN for memorial day weekend. As many on this forum know, there's a lot of fun to be had on farm ponds with poppers, buggers, and cheap fly rods. Ended up keeping enough hand-sized blue gill for a nice fish fry.








Using an eagle claw featherlight 7' 4wt with my dad's old dry fly deluxe el-cheapo reel.

Ain’t no shame in the warm water game. I fish a lot of industrial park ponds myself when driving to the maintains isn’t in the cards.
