I could not wait for the heat wave to end in Chicago so I could get out
and do some fishing with my new Ross "Fly Stik" rod , Ross CLA 3 reel with SA 200 grain sink tip line. The temperature
climbed as high as 105 degrees with heat index hovering at 110 degrees.
Saturday night cooled off fast and Sunday would be 20 plus degrees
cooler than the previous several weeks. The rivers were extremely low
and weedy. My best chance would be a spring fed lake early morning. Upon
arrival, the winds were pretty steady out of the Northeast. I decided
to take the 3/4 mile walk to the East side of the lake to calmer wind
and water. My fly of choice was the Murdich Minnow I tied up a few weeks ago. The bass were chasing shad near the shore drop off. This fly paid off well.
