  1. Had much success this past week, three days of target rich Albie fishing. 15lb leader, varying retrieves and fly changes low light versus sun light yielded lots of tight fly lines. Got many bites just after the foaming formation feeds with Albies “cleaning up”. IMG_4743.MOV
  2. Quite possibly the best stretch of Albie fishing I’ve had in ten years IMG_4741.MOV
  3. Well don’t make this about me… I’m not at all worried. I’m very careful, vigilant and considerate of kayak guys. But every time I see one in a high traffic area without a flag …. a flag is a choice of course. If something could avoid a really really bad situation, why not. That’s all
  4. Good question , bouys are marked, bouys don’t move. The boater might be going up on plane, etc. I’ve passed kayakers in low light areas in high travel areas and flags help. Why NOT have a flag is the question ?
  5. Kayakers , please use a flag. Not all that I see in busy areas Albie fishing have a flag up. And not all boat fisherman may have the situational awareness you would like to see from your vantage point low to the water. Observed some “ colorful “ verbal exchanges yesterday … keep it chill on the water Be safe, have fun
  6. The big one from that day fishing. I was told it was the largest carp in that specific body of water, was lucky for sure when it took the fly.
  7. I’m no expert. First time catching them on fly. Lots of fun like I said, hope to do it again in the future.
  8. With the warmer water temps touching 78, looking forward to hard tails. Late April, May, June and into the July moon saw solid fly action from the boat with bass eating small herring , sand eels and on certain tides, tinker mackeral in Buzzards Bay. Here’s a few photos over the four months.
  9. I’m a short stix convert exclusive from boat and kayak. I catch Albies and all size bass with the 9/10 ( have 2 ) and the 10/11 get a lot of use with my heavier sink line and big flies , if I have any shot of catching a bass 36 to 40 inches or more I will be using the 10/11. only use 9 foot rods wading they are hard to find
  10. Brand new, tags on. $190 local pickup in Mass or RI. ( reel is not for sale )
  11. $190, still available. Great rod especially at this price !
