Still grinding away on the drum! These things are still thick as flys and crowd pleasers. They fight great, taste great, look great, smell great…… These fish can be extremely easy to catch by simply using cut bait to bring them to you. OR they can be very difficult by enticing them into biting a fly using a fly rod. I had a morning crew and we bait fished them and caught em good, then we moved on to the flounder and caught a couple with only 1 keeper. We did manage to catch a stargazer?!?! First time on my boat…..
The afternoon I had Rick Nyles of SKy BLue Outfitters out with me to catch them on a fly rod. Rick is a professional fly fishing guide so he didn’t have any trouble catching them on fly. It was awesome to watch.
