Warmwater Flies
Fly fishing for warmwater species like bass, panfish, pike, musky, and carp is completely underrated by most fly anglers around the country. Not a lot can top a big largemouth exploding on a deer hair popper, or the thump on the line as a tenacious smallmouth inhales your crawdad fly, or the sight of a musky pushing a wake and coming in hot. If you're not enjoying these fish on the fly rod, you're missing some great fun. Here is a solid selection of flies to get new warmwater anglers on the water or feed the addiction of those who already have the fever.
