The only thing "took" was my blood: by black and greenhead flies!
This week I'll be out again, but will be in waders, long sleeves, buff, hat, and 90% deet, something like this, maybe without the head net
Whatever outfit I wear, it will guarantee I'll be off the beach before 8:30 by which time it'll be 85F
Decided to start fishing my local catch and release ponds with a 5 wt. couldn't find any bigger fish but got a few of these (not my pic, but identical):
One time, I had a hopper imitation on, floating on top, a little fish came to investigate, and swoosh and big swirl near the fly.
What I think happened is big bubba saw the little bluegills come up and decided it was dinner time.
So, I may resort to catching the baby bluegills and livelining
