The best part was, I was the only one out of 50-60 guys hooking up consistently  . I was king for a day  . For some reason, the fish only wanted flies that day  . It got to the point that I had to break off any fish that ran to either side of me, in order not to cross lines with the guys trying to mug me. |
You were king because you were probably the only one using something that resembled an anchovy. Let me guess, you had to avoid crossing lines with the guy in the white boots and jeans using a 7ft spinner casting a monster polaris popper.
I've been there during blitzes and the only thing they would touch was a 1/2 oz bucktail with no pork rind.
