Looks like more than a few folks enjoying the simple life.
I like the Pflueger Medalist Reel

I used to love poppers and gils on my hometown lake. Now it's an ultralight spinning rig and micro jigs. What have I become?? |

Gentlemen,
I love the mountain streams and Fly Fishing for Trout, a few white fish and Crappies and small mouth's mixed in make for a very interesting outing!

Haven’t tried with a fly rod but catching bluegills is always a good time. |

Great photos! Few things say summer better than that little 'fchlup' sound when a fat bluegill sucks down a popper. |

Don't hold your breath. Ron died a couple of years ago.

Bluegills/ sunfish on a fly; one of life's great pleasures.
