If you want to see what a real “Brownlining Blog” is supposed to look like, then you have got to check out Roughfisher Fly Fishing. The mastermind behind this website is Jean-Paul Lipton out of Detroit Lakes, Minnesota. From what I can tell, if you you are going to be fly fishing in Minnesota you better look this guy up. He offers great advise, great fly patterns, and even has a guiding service and online store. So go ahead check it out, and trust me you won’t be disappointed!
I had alittle time before the sun went down today after I got off of work to go and try my hand at a couple of Sunfish. I drove up to Ralph B. Clark Regional Park from my office in Cypress, and got out the 9′ 3 weight with 5x tippet. I used the dry dropper system, a Mini Popper as the dry and a Prince Nymph as the dropper fly. I fished the section of the lake where there is a lily pad pond, and pulled out 5 Sunfish in about 30 minutes. Right when I was leaving the Bass had started to come out, I had hooked a nice one but it broke water and spit my fly almost as soon as I hooked it. I cant wait for the warm weather to start holding, once these cold fronts stop the fishing should really heat up.
