Default Poppin bug Largemouth and gills

After the rain let up tonight I decided to take my fishing buddy aka my bosses son out for a little fly fishing for the last hour and a half of daylight on a private pond. Fish were reluctant to bight on topwater, but I insisted on it til the bitter end. Ended up with a handful of gills and one decent largemouth right at dark to end the night. All fish caught on the 5wt, 4lb test, and poppers, fish were released. Joe also learned a bit about casting a floating line, after many tangles later he started to do decent for the first time.
