Fishing Report Charlestown Breachway, 9/13/07
|
This fly can be tied in an endless variety of colors.
Hi everybody, we fished the Charlestown Breachway just upstream of the boat launch last night. The tide turned to incoming at 7:00pm and that is when the fish became active. Because the tide is not very high in volume it was moving somewhat slow. The stripers keep coming in, in small schools and not that often. The best action was within the second hour of the turn of the tide. We took schoolies, no keepers, on white deceivers and white and black stealth flies. These flies are 4" to 6" in length. The bait it still very, very, prolific; peanut bunker from 3" to 4" in length. I'm using a fast sinking intermediate fly line, an Airflow + 40 line. This line has a clear heavy WF section that I do believe makes a difference. These larger flies get below most of the bait and it is at this point or volume of water the fish I think take out of instinct as it passes by them. Long slow almost dead drift in nature seamed to work best for a retrieve.
