Tequila Sunrise Dragonfly

[Avalonjohn44]

I always wondered why the color Tequila Sunrise was a good producer, or for anything colored pink for that matter. On a trip to FL I found a pond with hundreds of pink dragonflies. As luck would have it I brought some Tequila Sunrise Powerworms and was able to precisely 'match the hatch'. Pretty much a perfect match. I caught a half dozen bass in about thirty minutes before the rain started, and used that color worm for the rest of the trip, it killed!

This just gave me an idea! The dragon flies around here are a bright blue... Time for me to get some blue worms! How were you fishing it? Fast, Slow, or dead sticking?

Thats really neat, thanks for the post!

I was fishing it traditional Tx Rig style, slow, on the bottom, but sometimes gave it quick swimming bursts. I tried it weightless thinking I'd keep it near the top where dragonflies would be but they didn't want it that way.

Great work. On a side note, I LOVE the scale finish on that rod. Did you do that yourself?

That is a GSX Titanium from Gander Mountain.

Yep, rod is from Gander, it came with the scaling.
