Sunset Park Tuesday - TheWhizzle - 12-08-2010
Went out yesterday to sunset to toss baits for trout for a couple hours.
I started with my favorite wooly bugger presentation, and I had a fish on in minutes. It jumped and ran and put up a good fight until POP, he comes off. 5 casts later, another fish on, and he comes unbuttoned too. I start walking around, and hook into another nice fish. He is a jumper too, and right at the shoreline, he pops off the hook.
Ok, this is getting frustrating.
I proceed to hook two more trout on the wooly bugger, and they too, come off the hook.
I don't know what was happening. Maybe my hook was a bit dull, or my 4 lb line was streching to much, but even though they obviously wanted the wooly bugger, I had to change it up.
I switched to an inline spinner. First cast, I am trying to figure out where my line is going when I realize that my bait got swooped up, mid-air, by some sort of bird. I tug a bit, but the bird flies off, spooling me completely.
Good thing I brought an extra spool!
Re-rig my pole, tie on another spinner, and I'm on a fish finally.

I made a few more casts after that, but my time was running out, so I made a b-line for the truck and called it a day.
I was hoping to catch the trout plant, but I was only there from 8am til 9:45am. Im not even sure what day they stock, but I think it is tuesdays.

So any more info on the wooly bugger setup? Do you use a fly rod (floating line or sinking) or fly and bubble with or without splitshot? Green, Black? I know I am asking for your secrets and if it is too much just say too much and I will figure it out on my own.
Happy that you got some on your trip to sunset I am going to watch the weather real close tomorrow for rain and hope to catch a opening!

I use a micro spinning reel matched with a 6.5' light spinning rod and 4 lb fluoro (when Im not broke).
I use one to four split shot depending on the fish. Sometimes they hit with a single bigger one, sometimes they hit when you use three or four small bb's spaced a half inch apart. I put the shot 3 feet up the line from a wooly bugger. Switch up the color and style. I like olive beadhead wooly buggers with some flash, but that doesn't always work.
