California Delta Fly Fishing Report

Delta Fishing Report:

Captain Byrce Tedford reports on 07.05.19

Topwater Largemouth & Smallmouth Bass are going good! As water temperatures warm above 70 degrees the Largemouth & Smallmouth Topwater bite keeps getting better! For Largemouth I focus on higher tides in the am or pm hrs with larger 1/0-4/0 Frog patterns. For Smallmouth I like outgoing tides using poppers size 6-8 in various colors such as orange, white or black. Other Smallmouth tactics include smaller weighted subsurface patterns or dropping small leeches off of the poppers themselves. These Smallmouth trips are super fun for seasoned anglers & a great way to get newer people into the sport of fly fishing!
