Top Water
- Jerkbaits such as Rapalas or Roques
- Zara Spooks
- Pop-R's
- Clear Baby Torpedos
Rods
Three of your favorite bass rods, be sure they are in good condition and bring one extra multi-purpose rod. I recommend 6˝’ or 7’ med-heavy bait-casting rods.
Line & Hooks
Clear 15-25 lb. test is recommended, there are a lot of brush and rocks, bring enough to respool one time. Lighter line will get you broken off. We recommend 3/0, 4/0 Mustad Pro-Select Hooks. They are stronger than Gamakatsu and will hold up better with Huites Bass. Bring at least 20.
There is a good tackle shop at the camp.
FLY FISHING
Fly Rods
Multi-piece 7 or 8 wt. Fly rods in the nine foot length are the best choices. Good models to choose from include the Sage RPLXI, G. Loomis GLX and the Scott HP Saltwater series, all in three or four piece, for easy traveling. Bringing along a spare rod is not a bad idea.
Fly Reels
(30 lb. backing) Sturdy reels specifically designed for rough use are the ticket. Models to consider are the Sage 5000 Series(5300), Tibor "Everglades" or "Freestone", Billy Pate "Salmon", Abel (2 or 3N), G. Loomis Syncrotec, & Ross Gunnison (G3 or G4).
Fly Lines
You will need two fly lines – a Cortland Bass Bug Taper and a Scientific Anglers Uniform. Sink line in a number 3 or 4 sink rate.
Leaders
7.5 - 9 foot tapered Umpqua Bass Leaders in 12 – 20 pound test class tippet. Fluorocarbon leaders are another good choice as they are near invisible in the water, sink quickly with wet flies and are perfect for spooky fish in clear water. Plan on bringing two leaders per day of fishing.
Flies (Surface)
- UMPQUA SWIMMIN’ FROG, DAHLBERG DIVERS, LOUDMOUTH POPPER
- CRYSTAL POPPERS, SNOOK-A-ROO, UMPQUA SWIMMIN’ BAITFISH
- PEACOCK DIVER
Under Flies(Subsurface)
- BURK’S FLAT TAILED WORM, BURK’S VEE WORM, SWIMMIN’ WATERDOG
- ZONKERS HOT CLAW CRAYFISH, BURK’S BASS FLASH
- BURK’S RATTLING JIG, RANDY’S GATOR FROG, WHIT’S SHEEP FLIES
- LEFTY’S DECEIVER, CLOUSER MINNOW
NOTES:
All flies should have weed guards except open water baitfish imitations.
Plan on bringing 3 dozen flies for a three day trip.
Bring "paste floatant" gink for hair surface bugs.
We will update our clients 10 to 14 days prior to their trip with an updated tackle list.
