WOW!!!! that is a nice bass! That is awesome! I have a huge grin on my face.
That hopper is definately a bass killer. I caught another bass on it last night at the Y. He wasn't the bigger guy I was after, but I think the water temps were a bit too high for the area I was casting (shallow.)
I tied that hopper specifically for bass. It's a #8 hook and I've caught only bass with it too. For surface feeding sunfish, I am going to try a gulper. I'll try posting a picture, but it is essentially a smaller bodied fly with no foam beyond the hook.
I'll try the longer hook idea too, cause it won't cost but a dime to try. Next time I'm at academy, I'll pick up some cricket hooks (longer) and tie a few that have the hook at the end and see if I can hook up a big gill or two. I may do that for Jacob who would be happy to land anything.

Now, I am envious of where you are at Paul. Being in San Antonio, you are just a short drive from all the clear rivers and streams, etc. At some point, probably after WT season, I'll want to try a trip out your way just to fish for trout below Lake Canyon, or the bass everywhere else.
