SGR (60 fwy / Peck)

[troutman27]

Hello,

I hit up this stretch of the river with my 2wt....with the warmer weather I figured I would have better luck. Well...I did. I missed several, but did land a decent Tilapia. I was using beadheads and midges, about 16 - 18 inches under an indicator.
And yes...I did release it, and when returning to my car, I doused my hands with sanitizer.

Fun catch on a 2 wt. I fished that area several years ago but didn't catch anything. Now thinking about it, it would be a great area for tenkara.

Agreed...I don't own a tenkara...perhaps I should buy one.

Congrats on the tilapia!

You know...I'm tired of hearing about that Tenkara Rod!!! So I just got the Iwana 11' ordered today as it was recommended by several on the board. Now...I'm getting tired of waiting...it's already been 12 minutes since I ordered...where is that lazy mailman?

WTG on the Talapia,we caught some once under the firestone bridge in Downey,by Golf n Stuff,the water was about 8"deep,and the structure was shopping carts ect,it was hilarious,I put a few in an aquarium but they crap too much,so I threw the in my pond and the 8lb catfish enjoyed them!
