That's interesting Scott...I have caught large RES on mini BG cranks too, and jig/crawler on bottom works well for me, but that's about it in my experience. I think nymphing with the flyrod would be a challenge - but may also be productive once one learned how they preferred the presentation and found a good pattern. I will pay a ransom for anyone who can get a photo of a RES taken on the flyrod - cocktail of the angler's choice at PB VI.
I�ll have a Shiner Bock T.J!
I have only targeted RES on a true fly once and caught small ones, one after another on a San Juan Worm.
I haven�t fished for them lately because too much fun on other species, but caught them them on the botton on pellet flies.
T.J, you know I don�t fish with anything other than a fly rod -
too much fun!
Cheers,
George
I need to try some of these Brimanators on RES...
....or with a brown tail JH Tearminator?
