The most fun I've had in recent years was a big brown that actually jumped at Pass Lake. It was March and I was trolling in my u-boat with a #8 brown wooley bugger on a full sink line. I wasn't expecting a fish over 20 inches so was using a 4wt. Now that's fun with a big leaping fish - it took ages to land and he was still full of kick at the end.

I hear that BH Chironomids are the hot ticket at Pass Lake. What if the fish aren't taking chironomids or if I get bored sitting still and I want to strip something in... Are there any other wet/streamer patterns that perform at Pass Lake? - Wooley-Buggers (what color/size?) - Nymphs Any info would be great for this Pass Lake virgin. Jeff Mix
