Part of me always look at fly fisherman in the surf with amazement. I mean, its hard to catch a fish with a rod that can cast 150 yards (ok, 50 in my case), never mind a fly rod with which cast is usually measured in feet. But the more I think about fly fishing the salt, the more I am getting an itch to do it myself.
Lets be honest, fly fishing, pier fishing, chunking, hand lining, they are all surf fishing if done from shore. There is beauty in each one of them.
We have decided that we should give some space in our magazine to all these techniques. After all, this is not Plugoholic Anonymous Magazine although if you look in to the man caves of some of our readers you might be questioning this statement. I know saltwater fly fishing is a small but fast growing part of our sport. What I am curious is how many of you guys are actually doing it or have done it in the past ?
