    Warm Water Fly Fishing Different Game With New Rules

    It is a different game with different rules when you go warm water fly fishing as the species will attack and respond to reactions differently than the fish typically caught on flies in colder water. Most fly fishing relates to trout or salmon and the techniques are similar, as they are usually very aggressive feeders. With many of the fish found in warm water, fly fishing is a different experience even if you have caught them on regular casting tackle in the past.

    Some of the species that can be caught on flies include large mouth and small mouth bass, crappies and blue gills along with rock bass. While bass have a reputation for violent strikes, their mouths are considerably tougher than many other species of fish and that makes it difficult to set a hook deep enough to insure a solid catch. When warm water fly fishing for bass, the best technique is to keep the tip of your rod pointed at the fly at all times.

    A straight pull is the best way to set the hook on a bass, even though raising the rod tips works with traditional casting equipment, with flies this will only succeed in giving the fish a grip with it mouth, enabling it to merely let go and swim away at any time. If you try warm water fly fishing for bass, deer hair tied flies are the best to use but a wooly bugger or a muddler minnow can also bring success.

    Pan Fish Offer More Fun And Excitement

    While many argue that bass of any variety can provide a good meal, pan fish such as blue gill and crappies not only taste good, for the sport of a good fight, even smaller pan fish can put up a good battle. When you go warm water fly fishing and are in the mood for crappies, try a streamer fly.

    Crappies prefer a diet of minnows and using streamers can easily trick them into believing they are in for a treat. Crappies are seldom leery at the sight of a leader as are trout, and using a soft 10-pound leader can help with your casting. Fishing from the shore can be done if there is enough room for casting but considering the deeper waters you will be fishing for crappies wading will probably be out of the question. Casting from a boat is probably your best bet.
