[cool][#0000ff]Tilapia are not "panfish" like bluegills and green sunfish. They are members of the cichlid family. While they are considered to be mostly herbivores (plant eaters) they do eat worms and other invertebrates. But, in all the areas I have encountered tilapias I have never known them to hit anything topwater. Put on your sink tip or at least use a sinking fly to get down a ways and use wet flies or nymphs. A good old hares ear should work as well as anything.[/#0000ff]
