Usually see flyfishermen on the banks of the LBC, never from a kayak. Is fishing ever the same once you make that transition?

Haven't done it in a while. Never got used to the adjusting my side ways false casts (so not to snag the other rods in the back).

Nothing like a fish on a fly rod.. . All fish feel big.

Thanks for the motivation to give it a crack again.

Very cool. My stepdad fly fishes, I'm always trying to get him to try for some saltwater bass.

Good to see you put the new fly rod to work. I'm sorry I missed it.
