saltwater fly fishing

[Fillet1]

Anyone do it? I swore I never would, (I would say " I am a real man - none of that artsy bs!!" ;D) but I have learned to broaden my horizons and give it a shot.. I picked up my first rod and reel and will be giving it a go very soon. I've got lots of questions about leaders and such. I know SportGimp does it - he sent me some sweet handtyed flies that I will put to good use soon! (Btw gimpy - that purple bucktail you sent will be a weakfish killer up here!)

Hello,
I'm glad to help out anybody that uses flys , either as "teasers" or flyrod, most of these flys are very easy to tie.
HEY WILLIE, since ya fly fish, jump in here and tell everybody what ya use.

I told ya its been a while, but with the new supply of those beauts you sent me, I will dig the rod back out and get it wet again soon......... :)

Even of your not a fly fisherman, how would they work as a "teaser" on a topwater plug, or "stinger" tail on a bucktail or something ?

[Slim to None]

harry, i add fly-like stingers to plugs a lot. the seatrout will destroy a top water plug with a fly tail on some of my favorate flats. and offshore a bucktail on a jighead with a piece of cut bait is deadly to a snapper or grouper (or a striper, i'd imagine for you northen people ;))

Harry,

I fish them on 6 inch dropper loops about 1.5-2 feet above a bucktail.

Thanks and I'm flattered Reggie.

I had a Fly set up when I was a young boy. Never quite mastered it. Maybe someday, I'll give it another try.

But thanks for the offer. I was just wondering if they would make a good teaser for a popper for a bass plug or something. But they would.
