Surfin' For Stripers
A friend and I took an end-of-day trek down to Sandwich to do a little night-time fly fishing from the beach. The weather was warm and the sky clear but the wind was blowing out of the south something terrible making it difficult to back haul. Before dark I started off throwing a white Deceiver and was able to nab a little guy up against a jetty. After the sunset I threw on a black Deceiver and managed to nab the little guy in the photo below. That was it for the evening. My friend was blanked.
Not Scorton's but not too far away.
Best way to catch em...
side car = stripping basket, it keeps the line from tangling around your legs
then 5 more stars for the hat at night. 10 stars if you hook into a great white.
A man's gotta see. Don't wanna be reaching down only to find I've hooked a shark! Besides, fly fishing is all about fashion :)
