FishHawk saltfly 09-26-2007, 09:45 AM a couple of weeks ago.Off great i.[hyannis] in the 9lb range.loads of fish in pods.looooong casts did the trick,most of the pods dropped out at appx.80' from the boat no matter what you did[drift,no depth finder running,motor running on/ off,etc.most were taken on gummy minnows no bigger than 1&1/2". used a 9wt w/clear int. Rio line 9' leader w/12lb. floro tippet.Little "yellow eyed devils" were in the mix so it cost us a lot of flies[in numbers]. FishHawk 09-27-2007, 10:29 AM I didn't get one but the boat I was on got one at MV. I had a hook up but think it might have been a bass. FishHawk baldwin 09-27-2007, 05:49 PM Albies are MUCH faster than bass, you'll know it when you hook one. I've caught quite a few, but not in recent years. One of these days... rphud 09-27-2007, 10:58 PM First one. Last week on MV in Edgartown from the shore on the fly. What a blast! Probably be haunting the south shore for another shot this weekend. falkners 10-24-2007, 01:51 PM Watch your knuckles!!! foulhook 11-25-2007, 06:14 PM Got about 65-75 in total for the year. Just about all of them came in a couple days of the Rhody coast out to No Mans Land. http://www.myfishpix.com/gallery/data/500/RI_023.jpg http://www.myfishpix.com/gallery/data/500/RI_026.jpg http://www.myfishpix.com/gallery/data/500/RI_028.jpg http://www.myfishpix.com/gallery/data/500/RI_021.jpg http://www.myfishpix.com/gallery/data/500/s_Candy.jpg FishHawk 11-28-2007, 06:52 AM What is the make of your reel it looks like the new Mako? FishHawk foulhook 11-29-2007, 01:56 PM What is the make of your reel it looks like the new Mako? FishHawk It is my own reel "Colton" Remeber I had a post one here a back in the spring. "Name my fly rods" That trip was actually to test a couple new designs. Nothing like Albies and Bonito to make sure things are working right:beat: Tight lines, Bob vBulletin® v3.8.7, Copyright ©2000-2025, vBulletin Solutions, Inc.
