Dusk stripers

[O.D. Mike]

Sun down,
Was at one of my favorite harbors and witnessed stripers poping on bait! Wish I had my fly rod, gonna have to make up some crease flies....

Too late now Mike. By the time you get through with the crease flies, the bass will be s#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&g up crabs and baby flounder off the bottom.

I just hit 'em 2 weeks ago on the fly and came up with a 49 1/2"er on 8lb tippet.........has to be some kind of IGFA tippet record

I'm new to this site.

Dusk to dark is my most productive time of day for fly fishing. Casting to breaking fish is a lot of fun. Right now, I'm tying up a couple of my ugly flys to go sight fishing on the incoming tide later today.

The way things are going, you may want to tie up a few tarpon flies and bring them along. Pt. Judith had 76-degree water yesterday. I hate to think what August and September are going to be like. LI Sound was 78 last week.

Hoefully the warmer water will cause the bonito and albies to arrive early and leave later.

For the last couple of years I've been trying to get an albie from shore on the fly. Maybe this will be the year.
