Awesome day to have a fly rod
 

Me, Yak'em and another buddy went out yesterday to chase monster reds with the fly rod. We went deep into the Biloxi Marsh and she delivered. We got a slow start only seeing the occasional fish. Our last stop of the day made up for that ten fold. Within five minutes of rolling into the flat my buddy had a 30 pounder hooked-up! Unfortuanately, he lost that fish but we soon were looking at fish after fish 15 pounds or bigger. Ended the day seeing at least 30 fish around 20 lbs and 2 other fish that were pushing 40. Landed three fish for the day with a total weight of 62 pounds!

you need to get some video of that Lucas!!!

nice fellas!! Looks like ya'll more and more ppl are getting into fly fishing. I may have to give it a shot one day

Nice!!!

Lil titty man...... Nice

Hell yea.....that is some good reds for a fly rod!!!!

We have some video

Them suckers are awesome on rod and reel. I couldn't imagine hooking up with something like that on fly rods!

Great work!

you have a way with those big reds...its almost like you have a dreamcatcher on your rearview mirror and it catches your innermost dreams of redfish on flyrods...I'm just sayin'...

Feel the wolf...


All kidding aside...great job keep after dem biggens!!

Awesome catch fellas

I got 2 flyrods.......and almost never use them because I don't have anything but bream popping flys.

One of the rods is a 50+ year old bambo rod........wonder what it is worth today?

I need to get set up to use them.

What is the weights of the rods? What would you be targeting with the rods, I mean what species of fish would you like to catch?

thats some beasts ........ can only imagine the fight using a fly rod!!!

Not sure what the weight is on the rods. I don't think the bambo is rated. It is a great rod for throwing flys to catch bream. Don't think I would risk it on a big red.

I have caught a few small trout on the glass rod I have. I think it is heavy enough to handle a big Red.

What "flys" would I need to catch a few Reds or trout?

check out geaux-outdoors.com

they are sponsor of this website and have quite a few flies to choose from. I know because I tie them. All the flies on that sight are proven red catchers. The trout teasers are good too.

was there a pun intended? or was that a W moment

nice catch, what kind of fly rod you use?

One of these days Lucas. ;) BTW, I'm getting spooled tomorrow.

i use a rojo grande fly rod
with orvis mid arbor

Awesome catch guys! I definitely have to give that a shot one of these days.

wow what a blast! way to go guys!

Man congrats!!!!!! I bet those big bulls put up a fight on a fly rod

Man, Do I miss the Days I fished the Biloxi Marsh for reds, out of a Pirogue, believe it or not. Congrats on a great trip
