Busy times

So since I've been home from vacation I've had almost no time to do anything, let alone fish.  Well the kids are back to school now, the days are getting shorter and the fishing is starting to heat up.  I was out last evening in Chippawa Creek chucking some terrestrials around.  The bass are aggressive and hungry as they prepare for the impending winter.  Just before dusk seems to be the key time and making sure your fly has a good "PLOP" when it hits the water is the key.  The bass seem to be hitting anything that makes a noise.  Grasshopper and beetle imitations have been working best the past few nights.

Here are a few of my favorite ones.
