Got this sucker otf in the Wando yesterday. School of them bustin top. Lots of strikes. Managed 8 on lures and one otf. Another off the list.
We use to target them in the heat of the summer. A deceiver worked the best and you just couldn’t strip the line fast enough, sometimes. It was a great way to practice the two handed strip retrieve. Next time I am out and the water is over the oysters I think I will have to get it a go. Nice get.
Do you blind cast for those or is it all sight fishing? Just now getting into the flyfishing.

Reel it back in as fast as you absolutely can while jerking it to make splashing noise. If ladys are home, they will show themselves. Now get the fly rod with a deceiver on it and do the same thing. Look up on the web about how to do a two handed strip retrieve. It's pretty fun when they hit and chase.

Not sue how Smokey got his but, this is a FUN method.
Those jokers were schooled up mid morning and crushing everything…thaught about putting a cig butt on the end of a hook just for the story. We’ve also found a mixed school of reds, trout, lady’s, and blues just like Ty is is talking about…oysters with the water coming over…
