Early morning flyfishing with a Ijuin Yomogi 3 weight rod. It was colder than I thought it would be and that slowed the fishing down a bunch. I got two bluegill to take a black woolly bugger and one mini bucket mouth on a squirmy wormy. There was a steady breeze that made casting a RIO Perception 3wt line a bit challenging. This rod is super soft and pretty demanding technically (it doesn't forgive timing mistakes), but it is so rewarding when you have everything dialed in.
