i was out in copahee yesterday with the fly rod and stayed for four or so hours…maybe more, i lose track of time easily. i got to my destination a couple hours before high tide and stayed maybe two or three hours after. i saw easily 50 tails and threw every fly at them i had and didn’t have any takers. i tried every conceivable fly- placement in relation to the fish and had every one pass right over it.
came back with the mrs. today right at high tide because she’s never seen a tail and in two hours i may have seen three or four. of course, the ones i saw and tried to point out to her, she could not locate. luckily, we brought spinning rods and i brought in a couple at the end with shrimp under a cork. and right when it started getting good, her back started hurting so we had to leave. also, i was able to drop both my stake-out pole and my anchor (kayak) on the way back.
so all in all, pretty disappointing weekend. i would post the pictures from today but don’t know if my computer won’t let me on this site or if there’s some secret to posting pictures that i don’t know (pop-up window comes up with connection problem message).
